Sitting in front of
The people I love
Hiding from them
My feelings in a cove
The sadness seeps
Up from my broken heart
To my eyes as they search
For a place to start
A place to start
With a knife in my hand
The thin lines as the pierce
The blood pooling in the sand
You hide them the next day
The cuts along your arms
To make sure no one sees them
You raise your alarm
Not a day goes by
That you don't see the scars
From so many years ago
Straight lines across your arms
Years later you know
How the cuts didn't help
All they did was curse you
With the pain that you felt
Each day a reminder
Of the way you made
Made yourself feel better
By giving yourself pain
Scarred for life
Both mentally and physically
You now know why you should never
Never show your vulnerability

Started again a few days ago...but I'm doing fine :) It doesn't help, so please don't harm yourselves.
