My Book Of Poems

Hello, just a short note from me about my poems that you are going to read. My poems are not sugar coated or covered in love, they are not about nice topics they are about real and everyday problems, that people suffer from. Some of these problems i myself have had to overcome, others are just things i feel very strongly about. So the poems you are going to read will be sad, dark, even depressing but i write about real issues and everyday problems that teens everywhere all over the world are suffering mostly in silence, all alone and i just want to show them.....

 you are not alone!!

I hope that my poems will help, even just a little and will maybe show other people and give them a little insight to problems such as depression and how hard these can be to overcome but with help by telling someone, you know what they say a problem shared is a problem halved and i strongly believe this. Dont try and deal with everything yourself, it only makes things a whole lot harder. I know from experience. ok so enough of my rambling i hope this hasnt put you off reading my poems now so the poem below was the first poem i ever wrote i hope you like it oh and thanks for reading my ramblings :)

The Addictive Cut

Lying on the floor,

My back to the door.

Staring into space,

My heart picking up the pace.

Thoughts circling in my mind.

I get up, searching, trying to find.

I scream,

A silent scream.

These thoughts they’re driving me mad.

I hold back trying to stop myself,

But what’s the point.

Rolling back my sleeves.

Staring at my arms.

It’s an addiction,

And I’m addicted.

A single tear escapes down my cheek.

I give in.

A slice across my skin.

Blood dripping,

A sigh of relief.
