Naylene's Book Of Poems

We've Switched Places, Dear

You said you were different,

Do you remember back then?
When you said you wouldn't do what i did and lectured me about it,

It's sad for me to say that now the positions are switched,

You're the one making marks on your skin and

I'm the one yelling at you for it.

I never wanted you to understand what this is like,

Dear, please,

Stop while you can.

You don't deserve this pain,

I'm so sorry

This shouldn't have been something you had to deal with,

Please, lift your head up and listen to me,

I promise it'll be okay.

This is something i wouldn't wish on anyone,

It makes you feel something again but please,

I can't stand to even think of you doing this to yourself,

You're my best friend and god,

I can't lose you too.

I know you don't do it to kill yourself but it scares the fuck out of me,

It could lead up to it,

Don't do it please,

Stop yourself, I'm begging you.

Remember the people who love you,

I'm here.
Dear, Remember this.

You are loved,

I promise.
