To you...from your demons
January 24, 2017
you look at me with pain in your eyes,
you use me to hide your deepest lies.
you blame me for the youth I take,
yet you keep making the gruesome mistake.
you hold me in your hands above your skin,
All I want to do is turn that frown to a grin.
but you look at me with great disgust,
I hate to see you get ruined, just for the lust.
I know in your eyes I'm a foe,
indeed I'm no angel, I'll always be the crow.
but I hope you realize you are causing all the harm
I hope you throw me away, and for dear life, you disarm.

Very nice poem by a young girl.. keep up the good work
This piece is extremely personal to me. I wrote it for all the people who have suicidal thoughts and who hurt themselves. I hope this will be of help. It is basically from the perspective of the blade. The same blade one uses when they are hurt themself. I hope you like it.
