I did it to myself

    • is so sorry she's been away so long! Trying desperately to catch up!

    I did it to myself
    Sitting here
    laughing at myself
    Humor has never been
    more painful

    Slapped hard
    in the face
    by a serious dose
    of humility

    Funny
    but I never thought
    I loved myself enough
    to feel self-inflicted pain

    I have not traveled this road. I do know a couple of cutters thought and they would love this piece. I dont understand the need to do that. With that aside I like it 8.5

    oh goodness! It never occurred to me that someone would read cutting into this poem. The self-inflicted pain that I was referring to was the fact that I allowed myself to be deceived and so I blamed myself because the sign were so clear and I ingnored it. Thanks for the rating!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
