my drug

cutting is my drug

all i really need is a hug 

ya so i slit my arm 

i don't think of it as self-harm

cutting helps me

if you cut you would agree

it erases all my sadness

thats all i have to confess

Chin up. Find a friend through creativity and self worth. Overcome obstacles with your unique ability to write. You may find that those in need of uplifting gain it from uplifting others.

I really do like this poem. Yes, I know your going through a lot, but I don't believe you need help. Believe in yourself, and you will get over it. I believe in you!

I really like the rhyme scheme. But this poem is depressing and I hope this is not happening to you. No one deserves to go through that. Stay strong hun

I read some of your other poems and I think you should call a crisis hotline. I've been in dark places before, and counselors and therapy have helped me. Talk to someone you trust, face to face. I wish I could help you more, but I'm a faceless person on the Internet. I don't know your situation, I only know what has worked for me. Try writing more. Your poetry shows promise, but the subject matter is very worrying.
Sending you Internet hugs!
