I don't understand why I'm just standing here,

I don't understand why you did that right in front of me.

Your arms are dripping blood now,

The blood pooling at my feet.

I can see the past scars almost white under your blood.

You wince from the pain but yet you cut deeper.

The knife is halfway in you,

You've already cut through your vein and your arm is pouring blood.

The knife now falls from you hand and clatters to the floor,

Your body slowly crumples to the floor,

It's almost as though I'm standing inside a horror movie.

I'm secretly hoping this isn't really happening,

That I'm not just sanding here watching my best friend slowly die right in front of me,

The sirens are now blaring in the distance,

When had someone called the cops?

I no longer can see you breathing and you've already gone comepletely pale,

The sirens are now right beside me and police get out and are putting me in their cruiser,

As I'm walking backwards I see them put you in a body bag and take you to the ambulence,

The last that I see of you is them closing the doors,

And all I learn after that is your dead.

Okay, I see. I'm sorry that you're friend does that, and that you're friend passed away. :( I used to cut myself and almost, committed suicide. So, I can connect, to most of this. It's been maybe on or two months since I've last cutted. I hope your friend, sees she's a wonderful person and that she'll feel better soon.

Thanks! No this didn't actually happen to me but I have had a friend pass and I have a friend who cuts. :( It's kinda sad to see her ruining her skin and herself mentally.

Wow. This is just very beautiful and sad too. :9 It has so much emotion and rawness in it. The thing is a friend of mine went through this, too. I'm sad that it happened and if this happened; I'm sorry if this happened. You are a wonderful and amazing writer and person. I love this poem. You really have a talent and greatness in you, because you do. Thank you so much, for sharing this.
