!!! asked in Social SciencePsychology · 1 decade ago

your opinion??? my poem any good????

the slices on my wrist

are but a throbing reminder

of my emotions

the hidden feelings

locked inside of me

eating me, weakening me day by day

i sit and cry

thoughts ripping through me

like a wolf devouring its prey.

its o so easy to reach for the blade,

the knife that sits by the candle

waiting

i slice through my skin

my thoughts paralise like a bullet to the brain

not a care in the world

not a thought in my head

untill i aknoledge the blood, my blood

each cut tells a story

an emotion, a feeling

a paragraph of my inner thoughts

inner thoughts that hide behind a smile

a joke, some laughter

long sleeves and thick watches

mearly a sacrifice for the secret

this secret untold

my secret

    It would be wrong to give an opinion to your question, and those that do come to a conclusion with so little information.

    Making negative judgement and personal opinion influenced by social stigma regarding mental health.

    In what way, when you ask if what youve written is any good, Such as, was it expressed, as to your living with self-harm, in ways that give others insight of emotions,thoughts actions, coping with self-harm,

    There is nothing negative about writing down feelings,state of mental well-being,be it in the form of poetry,lyrics, or expression through art even. It can be a positive approach in expressing how you really feel,espically as majority of people with mental health issues,have difficulty in communicating verbally, So keep it up! Its good that you have focused and dealt with your feelings, So dont let other people who make ignorant negative answers, they hardly show any insight,or understanding, take care, :)

    Yes its good cos it has a meaning, a very serious meaning and if you have having thought like this you need to speak to someone, why hide behind a smile if your miserable people see that, people can tell you hurt inside but no dare upset your fake smile so let people know how you feel - a cut too deep could be your last.

    actual coming from a consultant poet, it sounds somewhat forced. Do you think of that's forced? genuinely that's an extremely good first attempt. you have the skill to place your thoughts accessible. yet is does have stretched throughout it. you merely could desire to permit the words flow. do no longer make something come out. in case you are attempting this is going to look like a pen exploded throughout your website. and ... EDIT EDIT EDIT my expensive. the biggest to a superb poem is different copies.

    Every half backed nut is writing stuff like this. It's rubbish, Always has been, Always will be. Forget it and go back writing on toilet walls.

    no. poems about cutting yourself and hurting yourself are really sad excuses for emo activity. people think life is too hard or life sucks. its like that because THEY make it that way. if something is hurting you, fix it. dont add to it. there are many in my opinion, overpaid, however very helpful professionals. if this poem is really how you feel, then seek help. please.

    'Cut' to the chase...

    What's your 'point'?

    Not 'sharp' enough for me?

    I think your poem is 'vein'.

    I'm off now, as that was 'bleeding' boring!

    Hope you don't mind a 'slice' of my wit!
