Cuts
The cuts of the skin,
Aren't very thin,
Tracing a blade up and down your thigh,
Wanting to feel that high.
One more cut,
One more slash,
No more past.
It's morbid,
It's natural,
It's quite beautiful,
Those cuts of the skin.
Aren't very thin,
Tracing a blade up and down your thigh,
Wanting to feel that high.
One more cut,
One more slash,
No more past.
It's morbid,
It's natural,
It's quite beautiful,
Those cuts of the skin.

DRUGS POEM

Using.
Using drugs,
To stop the fuss,
Of the brain,
An overwhelming pain,
Causing you to self-medicate in vain,
Slowly destroying your future with every line,
Hoping you reach 49,
Unable to stop using,
Unable to stop self-medicating.
Oh! What a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
The small time of relief,
The small time of being something worth living.
But now, enjoy yourself of course,
Your family will feel their remorse.
To stop the fuss,
Of the brain,
An overwhelming pain,
Causing you to self-medicate in vain,
Slowly destroying your future with every line,
Hoping you reach 49,
Unable to stop using,
Unable to stop self-medicating.
Oh! What a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
The small time of relief,
The small time of being something worth living.
But now, enjoy yourself of course,
Your family will feel their remorse.
