Butterfly(a poem)
picking up a razor, i gaze at my arm
thus begins the cycle of my self-harm
slicing my wrists, carving my thighs,
now my skin matches how i feel inside!
cutting deeper than ever before,
I'm frightened yet relieved as blood begins to pour
I sit in a corner drenched red
wondering if somehow ill be better off dead!
tears stream down my pale face,
feeling I simply don't belong in any place
sorry im not your perfect missing puzzle piece
when i would give up this life just to have peace
completely full of pain & darkness,
im reunited with the one thing i do miss
A butterfly flutters in with its wings of hope
it settles on my wrists to help me cope
No more cuts no more scars
just a little butterfly who came from very far
love adorns its wings, reminding i'm never alone
able to smile now, i've seen how much I've grown
new found tears of joy shed from hurting eyes
I'm happy i now have this savior, the butterfly
i will protect it now & never let it die
so i may return the favor for saving my life!
