No one can save me
Might as well give up
No one can save me
I’m all out of luck
I see you attempting
I hear your mighty din
But no one can heal the
The cuts beneath my skin
I see you sitting there
I see you try
And when your efforts fail
I see you cry
Why do you even bother?
Why don’t you just quit?
The cuts are there and
Nothing will change it
No one can help me
Let’s just face the facts
In the realm of salvage-ability
I sadly lack
No one can advance me
Not by the width of a pin
I have to endure the
cuts beneath my skin
I can’t be helped by affection
Nor aided by love
My situation rests in the hands of
Those up above
I see you love all the time
I know you care
Let you help me?
I wouldn’t dare
I might conquer my fault
If I just let you in
It may answer my questions
Purify my sin
The cuts burn fiercely
Impossible to soothe
However, the answer might lie
In the love given by you

- this is prose in stanzas; try adding imagery, metaphors, symbols and then maybe i can consider you of a better caliber than "emo" poetry.

- This was really good. It's easy to sense the emotion, the angst you've obviously poured into this poem.
