Brave is not being fearless but being able to overcome those fears you have


Some people use journals to express their feelingings

I use a blade

People like music to keep them calm

I Like the dripping color red

Most of peoples ways help them in the long run

Mine only lasts a few minutes

People say that people who cut are stupid

But this is how I deal with things

The scars remind me of each pain I've had at home 

or school.

Until I found a friend who

Cares enough to tell me to stop

Knows what I go through

and is the only one I trust

he's the one that keeps me sane

sane enough to try to stop


The author's comments:

This is very true. I've talked to counselers almost got admitted to a hospital but the only reason I make an effort is a friend. A friend is all you need.

LOOK AT MY PROFILE. DO IT.

This is exactly what happened to my best friend. She used to cut a lot and especially after her boyfriend broke up with her, but then she met an amazing guy and she got better. This poem means a lot because I watched her go through all that without being able to fix her broken heart. Great job on the poem!

I don't trust words. I trust actions.

Beautiful. :) I struggled with self-harm for 3 years, and am now a year clean. Stay safe and keep writing.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.

This is a good poem, I must say. I'm glad you are feeling better. But dear, you need to capitalize your I-s the letter.

It's sad to think how many people are shocked by honesty and so few by lies
(Changed it up a little from a book I read)
