An Old Poem
 

A poem I wrote a while ago;


The pain is my drug,
It's what I need to survive.
All sense is forgotten,
When my mood takes a dive.

It feels so good,
And yet it's so misunderstood.
It's not for attention,
And its not for a trend,
This is my way of coping,
So take notes my friend.

When you judge the marks it leaves,
You are the reason I pull down my sleeves,
You make me want to add more to my collection,
So maybe before commenting give that some reflection.

I 'm not proud of this,
But I can't just give it a miss.
It's an addiction just like any other,
One from which I can't easily recover.

I have my friends on side,
And to them I apologise,
I am trying to stop this for you,
And put up with all I am going through.

Without you I wouldn't be here,
You really give me strength through fear.
I know I'm not alone in this,
So I try to help others get through.
My friends; I thank you!

It's beautiful.
