Razor Friend

Day 30: Possibly the worst friday night ever. Ok, I'm sure I've had worse but this comes pretty close. I don't feel like going into details but because one of my "friends" told her dad about how I was feeling I'm under a freaking sucide watch. Seriously? My dad is staying here and watching me. He wanted to take me to the hospital again, luckily that didn't happen. It's such bull, I hate it. Here's a poem I wrote:

My relationships have lost their essence
pushed some too far,  became too near
to others, can't find the right distance
to keep everyone safe this year
things have become too severe
for me to keep everyone sane.
Say too much, say too little
I say or do the wrong things
I act too insane or crazy
I think I'll start to lie.
"Why yes I'm in my right mind."
Sitting in my room cutting alone
I'm finally in the zone, in control
blobs of blood bubble up, my own.
 It trickles down, slick drops roll.
My lungs inflate, filled with the air
that only comes from sweet pain.
Like a life-saving press to the chest
I'm saved, alive for a short time.
I admire the slim little razor in my hand
thinking how good of a friend it is
"It's never a balancing act with you
you're always there in a crisis."
