I do agree with Frank, Collen. Everything here is good, but the longer lines need to bifurcated. They are way to long. I also agree with Frank and Shannon that this is a very good piece, and even gives advice to those that self harm. This poem could be published by any magazine that would be able to send this message to others. Self harming is not a way to relax, and all it takes is one time to cut too deep. Thank you for sharing, Colleen. With love 'n' hugs, Barbara 'If I have to be this girl in me, Then I have the right to be.'
