Description The cuts on your wrist explain it all.
The look in your eyes tells your story.
Even when you touch my hand
I can feel a difference.

I try to help and to get you through
but you don't seem to really hear.
I want you to come back to me
but I'm afraid you're gone for good.

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

You've changed your whole being
and I don't recognize this stranger
but I can't help but feel
like it's all my fault.

I want to hold you close
and I want to reassure you
but I can't seem to get through
to tell you what I feel.

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

You say that you've been through it all
and as you walked into school
and you thought that no one would see
I saw it all.

Cuts caress your flesh
Slits split your skin
Burns break your wrists
and bruises bust your arms.

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

I've seen you from far away,
and I've seen you up close.
I don't like whats happening,
but I feel I can't stop it.

Please speak up and tell your story
I want to know the truth
and as you begin to whisper
I'm willing take it all in.

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

I consider myself a soldier
of love and of war
and as I nod my head to your story
I give you my honest thoughts.

Your parents are ignorant brats
Your siblings are arrogant fools
Your friends are snobby backstabbers
and me? I'm the only person who'll listen to you.

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

You've put all of your problems
on the shoulders of a young girl
and yet for some reason
she's the only one you can trust.

What do you do
when life picks up a baseball bat
and cracks you over the head with it?
Find the people you trust most, and sob the story.  

I'm afraid of your actions.
if pain is your savior,
then how far you'll go
is my worst nightmare

Friends aren't there to pull you down
we're here to listen and to help.
We'll cry with you, and shoulder your burdens
and do you know why?

Becasue we honestly and truly love you.
We care for you more than you could ever imagine
and we wouldn't leave you for the world.
We honestly and truthfully care.

I'm afraid of your actions, So don't hurt yourselfI
If pain is your savior, then why am I even here for you?
How far you'll go scares me to death and that's the truth.
My worst nightmare, is where this road will take you
So don't hurt youself, and if you need something to live for...
live for me. Cause I care. even when you're like this
I care.

This is ~AMAZING~!

I cannot think of a better word.

This describes my best friend, the guy I love, and just the way he is.

I love this!

ah, thank you so much! *blushes* I'm glad to know that you like it so much! This is always what a writer looks forward to. Or at least I do. I like to know that my work connects with people, and their lives. So thank you, I really appreciate it!

This really speaks to me. I have a friend who is having a hard time. And I mean like a REALLY bad time. And she just seem to be getting worse, and I don't know what to do. I just want to take all her pain away, but then again thats something I can't do... It's really hard to see someone you love hurting like that... And I can't talk to her about it, and I can't talk to anybody else, because then I would break her trust...

Am sorry for dumping all of this on u, didn't mean to rant of like this My point is that I like your poem

... I had a really hard time a while ago. Just like, with home and school, and I felt that I couldn't turn to anyone and I just kept getting worse. I didn't tell anyone and I started getting headaches, and falling into depression. But the only thing that brought me out of it all was finally being able to talk to someone. My friends finally came up to me after school one day, took me by the arm and lead me out of the school to where their mom was picking them up. Even their mom was in on it! I was flipping out, by the way. But, they took me back to one of my friends and made me spill the story. After that I realized what amazing friends I really do have, and how much that I have to live for! Sometimes people just need to be reminded of that. But, if you're going to talk to her, don't do it the way that my friends did. I love them but their idiots most of teh time. Just, ask her if she wants to talk. You'll never understand how much it really does help. but she will. Hope that I helped

and thanks for the comment on my poem, I'm glad that you liked it!
