I'm sorry, but there's too many fucking people out there that cut just for attention, or to be 'scene', for me to give a crap. :]

I know several people that, everday, come up to me, roll up their sleeves and say 'Oh my gawd, look what I did to myself last night.' And most of them cut the tops of their arms to keep from slicing anything fatal.

And the number of poems out there about cutting yourself and how people just don't understand is staggering. And usernames like 'razorbladexkisses' and 'suicidal' and popping up fucking everywhere. Face it, hon, hurting yourself has become a trend.

If you want to die so fucking badly then take a gun to your head.

Have a nice day. :]

First, I will criticize your views and clarify my own, then I will comment on the poem itself. Save the most important for last.

"(Prove that we can...) Is that why we chose our wrists?"

Well, yeah, maybe. If you were to cut just one of the arteries on either side of your neck, one of the arteries under your arms, or a fermora artery on the back of your leg just below your butt, you would die of blood loss much, much faster than if you cut your wrists.

Second, maybe proving you can isn't why you choose your wrists, maybe its why you choose to cut. There are many easier and quicker ways to do it than cutting your wrists. I was once suicidal, and I know what I'm talking about. I would think that most people who are truly sure of it get a gun.

I'm not saying that all wrist cutters are just attention whores. Most probably aren't. But the fact is, cutting the wrists in order to die really doesn't make any sense if you think about it, when there's quicker and easier methods to do it, even if all you can do is cut. That's why a lot of people assume that wrist cutters aren't sincere.

Now, the poem itself, could've used better structure, but you timed it just right, and your the way you present your point really is pretty convincing. Good sarcasm, too. Well done.

That's just so true. I hate it as well when people think we do it just for getting atteintion..well, but it's sad that there are some people who in fact do it just because of that... Well, never mind, great poem.

you're totally right, real cutters don't do it for attention; they don't actually want people to know about it. but i must admit, ur words are little but strong, simple but meaningful.
