A Beautiful Disaster

to the ones who saved me: a slam poem

to the ones who saved me: a slam poem

none of you knew you saved me,

your kinds words lingered in my mind as I was going into insanity,

they stopped me from dragging a razor against my thigh for several months now,

every bit of your words, and kind hearts saved me.

and yet none of you knew that your kind actions saved me.

you all saved a girl who believed she wasn't worth anything.

so thank you,

thank you for knowing how much I appreciate you.

thank you for making me laugh when I was upset.

thank you for staying up at 2:30am with me.

thank you for taking that time out of your day to talk to me.

thank you for being my friends.

I cherish every one of you.

thank you for loving me, as who I am.

thank you for loving me, even if you know my past.

thank you for everything.

thank you for saving me.

because now,

I am in a better place than I was.
