Wow. You've caught the feeling of being trapped in something you once felt was you escape very vividly. You're right, it isn't fun, pain can never be fun.

You've portrayed the addiction to cutting yourself very well.

Can relate so easily. Some ppl at school know I cut and one of the just threw at me one day and I fell apart ('words hurt' is the poem i wrote based on that) and this poem really reminds me of that.

Aw, I relate, (thinks of annoying girl in Maths who ACTUALLY asked to see old scars, as though it were a status symbol). Great way of expressing it. Really gd poem.

My, my heart went out for the poem. Its sad. Cutting yourself is not fun at all. Who ever would want to say that? Its not true. Its painful, and its self-destruction. I could feel the pain here. This was beautiful and wonderfully written.

identifies with the compulsion well. very honest portrayal of the subject and societies reaction to it.
