My Pain Is Relieved As The Blood Flows From The Wounds I Made

Let me shed my tears
And wipe away my façade of happiness
Let me show you the real me
The real me who hurts inside so much that she cannot bear it.

I'm dead inside.
My heart has been ripped out
And thrown back in my face.

I'm not pretty, nor skinny
But I'll bleed myself beautiful
Starve myself 'til I'm thin.
Then maybe you'll love me again.

It might be shallow
It might be insane
But I would depart my soul
To be with you again.

I'll cut up my wrist
And twirl razorblades around my fingers
Slip them into my mouth,
Just to feel the pain.
So I can embrace your touch again.

You have a remarkable way of using euphemisms . . . as well as blank verse. It's good . . . keeps it original.

"But I would depart my soul/ to be with you again" That line was such a gem. Write on.

to gain the right to touch is not really that hard, though it usually isn't worth it... its love that we want to gain, but if that can be gained its only by being your beautiful self.

and in general, only the truly screwed over people are attracted by the self mutilation. Actually, always.
