Carving Smiles, Silencing Blades
Words
Encouragement circle his weary head.
One to relieve the
Pain.
Tired eyes,
Focus on dark drips of red.
Two will help him
Forget.
Emo, loser, pathetic
Worthless.
Three still hold a slight
Risk.
Forced smiles
Quiet his cries,
Distress.
As four now
Cover his wrist.
Encouragement circle his weary head.
One to relieve the
Pain.
Tired eyes,
Focus on dark drips of red.
Two will help him
Forget.
Emo, loser, pathetic
Worthless.
Three still hold a slight
Risk.
Forced smiles
Quiet his cries,
Distress.
As four now
Cover his wrist.

so this is my first non-ATL related thing -- as well as my first poem -- on this site, and it'll probably be the only one. i actually wrote this for my english final, and since the final grades have just been posted, i figured i could now put this up without getting any penalties and such. please let me know what you think, thanks!
