Cuts Poem by Jeanette Renken

Another torn spirit
Another broken heart
Another life without a meaning
Another angel left apart

Another story left unwritten
Another page that's left unturned
Another day that is left waiting
Another bridge that you have burned

Another lie that you will tell
Another nightmare in the dark
Another trap that you will sell
Another hate-filled mark

Another person gone
Means just another scar
Another place you don't belong
Another blade dug in too far

Another story told in vain
Another thing to miss
Another quality you're told to gain
Another hope for bliss

Another stab into your back
Another friend is gone
Another blood stream dried to black
Another wish to just be strong

Another person that you let down
Another bandage across your arm
Another scream that makes no sound
Another desperate urge to harm

Another want to care the least
Another angry stare
Another sleepless night to cry
It’s all too much to bare

You see them come and you see them go
And you turn and walk away
You'll show your feelings in your skin
And tell the world another day
