Nothing

some how im the one to blame 
i guess i hurt myself for fame 
i said what you wanted to hear
but only said out of fear 
but how can you sit there and juge me 
and tell me what i could be 
try to act like you know how i felt 
when i was whipped by the belt 
the cutting releases the stress
tho it can be a mess 
so here i sit wishin my wrist were bleeding 
to stop the pain from the beating 
but just when everyone was about to give in 
and i was alone counting my sins
you showed up into my life 
forced me to put down the knife 
something no one tried to do 
who know that id be you 
to show me the light 
scared at frist because its so bright 
now i have this second chance 
but now life is hared to balance 
i think of goin back to my old ways
but whats the point anyways 
i have you to work for 
and theres nothing i want more

depressing, uplifting. It's like an oxymoron, not sure if it's bitter or sweet. Like that you let it out, dealing with it. good poem.
