Self harm is not only cutting it’s hitting and biting and burning and hurting your self but mostly cutting people think hurting them selfs is better than getting professional help in reality it’s worst your wrist are covered with cuts from self harm this is why you should get professional help some people can’t get professional help because they don’t want their parents to know and that’s understandable but at least have someone to talk to and if you don’t always text me x

Self harm
i'm tired of singing the blues, for everytime you leave me tired of saying it's fine, don't you worry about me. i'm fine.

fine is easier to say than having to explain
The tip,your taste on tempted tongue, The haste, the hover, the hungry one. I live, I last, I love, lament, I walk and wonder where our love went.

it’s november when the meds kick in, it’s december when i feel human again. (or maybe, for the first time?) i lack less. found an appreciation for something or another dug up in the front yard by a half-blind dog. appreciation for the living and the quiet small moments. i used to know empathy, used to take her hands between mine in cut scenes but those were trembling eras of seconds, caught between an intensity i’ve since given away. an inferno. of being in love with wheat grass bet- ween high ways and last bit of clouds eating sun like nectar in the rearview: or sweet talking directly into his eyes at midnight, hearing a smile in the smoke that separates our houses. cats with twigs and dirt swimming in their bellies. ghosts in the woods beyond my car, yowling at the full moon as if they were born to. i now know the silence and warmth of sleep. i exist alongside unfamiliar calm, a quaint silence that does not burn at the touch. but the world is almost softer almost lighter -- my skin is held to- gether with some thing more than glue. (maybe stitches?) i wonder if i was human the whole time.

Standing In The Abaft In Front Of The Commodore's Cabin, I Look Back Towards The Towed Wooden Raft Floating, And I Am Smiling To Myself After Remembering, How The Angel Was found, Liberated & Lost. Yes, Sadly, She Went Away, Never To Return, Probably Her World Was Way Too Cherishable, And Comparing To Her World I Was So Perishable, Now I Have Learnt That Angels Are So Very Unnatural.

Angel Remembered – The Wind Blows So Softly
There's a cat with a grin. Wicked as sin. So it doth vanish into thin air. Just a big grin dangling there. In the realms of Alice. Red queen stirring malice. Off with her head so the red queen said. And the dormouse slept in the tea *** Stewing quietly. The tea's too hot. The fella with ****** hats. Doffs them to the lords and ladies. Shady character for sure. He sips from the saucer he chucks. Off with the queens head. A lucky shot. He runs and hides. Makes a keen escape. Alice holds him tight under her apron. White bunny grabs them. Up through the hole they go. White rabbit, Mad Hatter and Alice as you know. Scarpered along the river bank. Sat on a rug for a minute or two. Toes in the water. In the house on the hill. Daddy waits for his daughter. She's in the garden. She strolls back indoors. Bunny's chucked back in his hutch. Mad hatter is sat back on the window sill. The looking glass beckons sweet Alice back in still. She's had enough fun for one day. (c)LIVVI

"What went wrong" For me I did my very best, But then i guessed that wasn't really my best. I tried to blend myself in, When I know I can't but I'm still hoping. It took alot of time, The work i made is worth plenty of dime. I kept on moving forward, Thinking it'll be best and I will get some reward. But I was **** wrong, At some point. I keep asking on what went wrong? - 11/25/2k15

Stiletto heels and a push-up bra, Hair piled high, bleached and toned and all… That’s the way you used to shuffle around, But you ain’t been much since your man went to town. Who’s that a’ worrin’ bout them wrinkles and lines? Is that the same broad who fell for all his lines? Well, since he left you all you do is frown. No, you ain’t done much since your man went to town. You could’a picked a man who would’a cherished you Once upon a time when love was fresh and new, But you picked the one who was known all around. Now,  you ain’t known much since your man went to town. (Interlude) You could’a picked a man who would’a cherished you Once upon a time when love was fresh and new, But you picked the one who was known all around. Now, you ain’t been much since your man went to town. Whatcha gonna do when the rage runs high, When the last tear falls cause the well has dried? Whatcha gonna do when the sun goes down, Cause you ain't slept much since your man went to town. What’cha gotta to do to make it right Is take your piece out of your purse, it’s a Saturday night. What’cha gotta do is shoot him down, ‘Cause you cry too much since your man went to town.

What’cha gotta do is shoot him down, ‘Cause you cry too much since your man went to town. (I'm still tweaking the arrangement. It should have an upbeat Little Richard or Ray Charles rock-n-roll mid-upbeat tempo with possibly hand claps on the downbeat like a spiritual chorus... since most early rock and r&b; musicians got their starts in small black southern Baptist churches. Let me know what you think. If it ***** tell me.

Since Your Man Went To Town (a song)
Will I ever smile Will I ever be happy for a while Will I ever be glad Will I ever feel anything other than sad Will I ever be cherished Will my heart be treasured Will I ever be given what am promised Will I ever be loved Will my tears ever dry Will I ever not wonder why Why no one will ever try So I dont cry I ask myself The thots I hold dear The truth which I fear Because truth is I will never be cherished My heart will never be treasured I will never be given what am promised And I will never be loved Because truth is Tears like mine Aren't meant to dry

Tears like mine
Last time we met and gazed at one another You ignited a fire and left! You went away to your business Leaving this poor soul in misery and longing You ignited a fire and left! I waited for you until darkness You came late and found me unconscious The pain was so intense, dear What else could I have done? You ignited a fire and left! Just by your one touch I was revived Putting my face to your breast Crying like an infant, I sobbed You ignited a fire and left! You went away to your business!
