The note"I cut myself today,
To see if I could feel
And to prove to the world
That this pain was real

And though I did this to myself
Nobody seemed to care
They passed me in the empty halls
Pretending I wasn't there

So I'm writing this,
To whom it may concern
My fingers shake, not from pain
But from emotional burns

The days are long and hard,
When you have no friends
So this is why I decide
To put my life to an end

So I'm gathering some rope
And I'm going to the park
And you'll never find me here
Until late after dark

You all who never listened
Who shoved me around
Will all be gazing up at me
While you stand on the ground

This

RoseThe last petal falls from the rose
A sick smell wafts through the air
The petal surfs the air until it crashes onto the ground
Cold, heartless, the ground engulfs the petal along with the others
The stem of a once beautiful flower stands bare
Its nakedness is reflected off the glass vase it's in
The glass was supposed to protect, instead it betrayed
It cast out the petals nonchalantly as it laughed at the shivering stem
Forsaken and forgotten, the stem sits inside the vase
Its green life sucked out, now it's brown and dry
It gasps for water, for a source to replenish it
But the vase has taken that away from the stem too
Once it is

Running Away From MyselfAs I blindly grope for the release
I reach for the peace holder
Its blade tempts me to try
Its sharpness and sheen attracts my pain
To feel the exemption that the blade gives me
The pure pleasure of making my fears go away
Taking my mind off of life
The tip penetrates my skin
Scarlet blood seeps out of the wound
I lick my lips in ecstasy
I sigh as the blood runs down my arm and onto my bed
It's gotten so bad, that I cannot even hide the scars
But I never could
I couldn't hide the scars of the past
The emotional agony
The hurt and the pain inside
All bottled up, waiting for deliverance
I want to run away, to escape
To be lik

Family Portraitby ~clutchingmycureLP

deviantART Related / Devious Fun

This was inspired by the song: Family Portrait by Pink

Momma please stop cryin, I can't stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn?t mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you'll see
I don't want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can't stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don't wanna go back to that place, but don't have
no choice, no way
It ain't easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen
I don't want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Mommy I'll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I'll be better, Daddy please don't
leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, let's act like it comes
naturally
I don't wanna have to split the holidays
I don't want two addresses
I don't want a step-brother anyways
And I don't want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

~clutchingmycureLP Nov 7, 2004

awww thanks. but i can't take the credit for the song. It's by the artist pink.

anyway, I started off with the pic being colored
in colored pencil.. but i filled it in using Photoshop, and
i think it turned out better..
