I understand

I understand You’ve never held that knife in your hand to need the pain it can cause And for your thoughts to stop I understand It’s hard to comprehend It’s hard to see but I’m still me just with a few scratches that match how I feel I understand I don’t want to die and I don’t want attention but I can’t stop that impression I understand it doesn’t affect you but it’s still true do I dare To ask If you care I don’t understand

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed. I may not understand, but God surely does.
