My Cry For Help

By Sex Slave

Tears rush down my face as I hold the razor
My mind is filled with anger
My heart with guilt

* I make the first cut *

Blood slowly starts to flow
I call for help
No one answers
Beg for someone to stop me
Pray that it won't be too late

Someone please help me
I have no more control
It's too much to handle

Will you answer my cry for help?
Stop me from hurting myself?

Please help me before it's too late
Hear my call for help.

But you kind of made me think of where I'm at. I'm right there in that poem... thank you. It's always good to know you're not alone. I hope you got past this. I hope I will too, someday.

(continued)Don't let them see you down because that will only bring a smile to their sick faces.

I know how that cry for help feels. I have been there too many times. If you hurt yourself, all you are doing is letting everyone else who has hurt you win. Allowing them the satisfaction of what they caused. I learned that long ago. Don't let them win. D

Danny, darling, you can talk to me anytime. The comments you get on this work may be rough. No one likes "cutter' poems. *sigh*

agreed, cutting poems are still taboo even though its more common than anyone wants to believe. you put your heart on the line writing about it, so if someone too shallow to understand critizes your subject matter, blow them off.

should a poem be judged on its subject matter alone? blah, i think not. true we enjoy what we relate to more, but difficult subjects do not a poem ruin.
