Harm To Yourself

By: DarkenedAngel

Written on October 1st, 2011

Run to your room

Slam the door

Turn up the music

Fall to the floor

Scream in yourself

Let no-one hear

Tell no secrets

Show no fear

Grab the knife

No-one will care

Pull back your sleeve

Your arm in bare

Lay the blade against Your Skin

Pushing hard the pain will Begin

Not enough…

You dig down deep

Pain subsides….

Blood Starts to seep

Your head clears

What have you done?

You throw the knife

And begin to run

You run from life

But inside you know

You’ll have to return

And let nothing show!

  Thankyou & As For Being Called "Emo" I Shouldn't Worry About It- It's Just A Name- i Don't Believe In Sterotyping- I Will Admit I Am Quite Emo But i Believe Everybody Is Different So They Cannot Be Put Into Categories- So Remember You Are Not Emo But You Are YOU & You Are UNIQUE & Thats What Makes Us All Special :')

I Think Understanding Is Important Whether You Do It Yourself- You Know Someone Who Does Or Just Because- Its Nice To Know That Others Don't Just Think It As Stupid- Thanks :)

@ UpOnDaRoof- I'm Afraid I Did Experience This- But It's Made Me Stronger- This Poem Shows That Self Harmers Aren't Stupid But Are Looking For An Escape From Life
