The cutter


She passes a cool
Razor
Through her skin


She feels the toxic blood
Drip from her vein

The pain soothes her
She becomes weak
With pleasure
She sighs
Her troubles are gone

She slashes the razor
Deeper into
Her skin

She feels weak
With jubilation

She watches every bit if blood

Her problems

Begin to fade

Her eyes are glossy

Her ecstasy




Tammy

...Indeed, a symptom of a deeper pain

I've worked with adults who have cut since childhood, and often found the cutting helped them cope with some traumatic incident or history...

Not an easy topic to write on....good job T :heart:

Not an easy subject and even more difficult if you have a child that cuts. My son was a cutter for a brief time: there's nothing more disturbing than finding your child with cuts all over their arms. He was able to stop, thank god, but the scars remain. I have yet to be able to write about it. Good job.

Ouch, yup, had a couple of friends that dealt/deal with emotional pain this way. It is hard to know about and for some very hard to understand any sense of reason behind it, and trying to find new ways of expressing that pain both putting words to it and expelling the actual pain, ughhhh I agree well done on a rough subject....
