Sorry- a poem journal

Cutting

You cut

You bleed

You slice yourself to see

These reasons are many

But not complicated as seems

You cut to feel alive

To feel something

Neither empty nor dread

To feel alive or emotions

To remind yourself you haven't a heart of stone

Or that you are physical and real

Or to punish yourself for all that you do or don't reveal.

You cut

You bleed

To set yourself free.
