Very inspirational to those out there that may be dealing with difficult times. I myself do not cut or even pretend to understand the purpose of doing so, but your poem is still beautiful. It seems slightly choppy perhaps from the various lengths of the different stanzas. I paints a beautiful image of someone finding a friend/someone who has "been there before" to confide in.
My favorite bit is the very beginning. No one else notices, but you do. Simple, but extremely meaningful.
Great job!
Thanks for what you said. I will work on the flow of the stanzas for sure!

This is a very moving and touching poem. Though the flow isn't consistent, the meaning behind the words is strong. And though flow is important, I feel like the meaning is more important. I love how this poem shows cutting and perhaps even suicide from an outsider's point of view instead of the cliche of seeing it from the cutters point of view. I also love how it doesn't criticize, but in a way supports and shows that there is hope and a way out of the pain people will sometimes put themselves into. Now that the meaning is solid, I suggest moving onto working on the flow of the poem and keeping the length of the stanzas consistent. Other than those little things. Great poem. I loved it, keep writing.
