Relief by WritersForChange - A Poem from Wattpad

I'm abandoned and alone

I would do anything for relief

To be away from all this stress, sorrow, and pain

It hurts so much

But you can't see it

My scream for help is mute to your ears

My screaming goes unnoticed

I cry and cry but no one hears me

I want relief so badly

Ever for just a little while

It began with my slit wrists

No one noticed, except you

But I didn't stop

You noticed me when I did it

You never listened any other time

It starts to feel so familiar

The cold metal against my pulsing wrist

I knew the routine so well

But I slipped

I went to far

I cut too deep

The pain was just too much

You finally heard me screaming for you to listen

You took me in your loving arms

You told me it's okay

I don't have to feel pain anymore

I knew you were right

I felt happiness

A feeling I never quite understood

In Life
