breaking down
please..dont act like you care..
dont attempt to be my light
don't try to make all my pain go away..
don't try to tell me everything will be alright..
don't tell me to stay alive a little longer..
don't say what im doing to myself is stupid
don't pretend you've been where i am
you'll never understand..
no one will....
im alone in this world..
nobody to stand beside me..
nobody to share my pain and distress with
no true place to call home
no reason to be here
you didn't think anything would be this imperfect
were lost
we spend all our lives searching for ways to feel
ways to feel alive...
our heart beat isn't enough...
sometimes it requires self inflicted pain....
dont attempt to be my light
don't try to make all my pain go away..
don't try to tell me everything will be alright..
don't tell me to stay alive a little longer..
don't say what im doing to myself is stupid
don't pretend you've been where i am
you'll never understand..
no one will....
im alone in this world..
nobody to stand beside me..
nobody to share my pain and distress with
no true place to call home
no reason to be here
you didn't think anything would be this imperfect
were lost
we spend all our lives searching for ways to feel
ways to feel alive...
our heart beat isn't enough...
sometimes it requires self inflicted pain....

I know these feelings very well and even though you wrote this today, I hope that isn't how you were feeling.
A powerful write that caught me at the start, carried me to the end.
Bravo.
Stephen.
I read your poem, lot of pain your going through today, but I must say I do understand your emotions, but please don't act on them, I know many people who are cutters, when they get hurt they physically hurt themselves to try to take away their pain they are feeling, but doesn't work, I sure hope your not.
A powerful write you have composed today! While everyone's pain is their own unique brand, the fact that others have managed to survive their brand can provide hope to another who is searching for some light. While love and caring from another has been known to perform miracles, self-inflicted pain cannot make that claim.
