Have you ever Herd/read Kisses and Kerosene by Otep (a band, but the song is basically a poem) its an incredible piece that you might like, but on the other hand it might disturb, but just putting it out there. by the way, your poems are incredible,

[MissJackilyn]

Your poetry is very well-written & evokes strong emotion...I like it. I'm a writer, as well, and always appreciate others who open themselves up thru poetry, too :]

[chrissicat12]

This poem is realy good too :)

[thegigm]

@idrinktheseawater Have you written/considered writing a book with your poems in it or do you want to avoid doing something like that?

[idranktheseawater]

@thegigm

It's something I've thought of doing, but as yet, I dont have enough poems to fill a book.

[berrykrazie]

your poem truely spoke to me and your art in words, videos, and skit have always made a difference. i hope you are doing well, I can hear the sadness in your voice and see it on your face. Hugs my friend.

[TheKatSpaz]

@idranktheseawater

Good idea! Thanks! Love all your videos!

[BlueEyedAngel092]

Hey,

I love your poems! I wish mine were that good! Umm... I know it's none of my business at all and I know that you don't know me but are you doing okay?? You just kind of seemed sad or upset in the video! I don't know maybe i"m wrong but remember things always turn out okay! Look to the future instead of the past and remember to stay strong! :D We all love you and your an inspiration to us all!!

Be Safe,

Amanda

[idranktheseawater]

@BlueEyedAngel092

Thank you

and wow, I had to watch the video now to see what you meant, but yeah, I did look upset. I have been kinda messed up. I think I'm going to make a vid about it in the next few days. I'll see.

Thanks for taking an interest.

[TheKatSpaz]

Umm I don't know if anyone will answer me but my dad just sign my family up for my gym and he wants me to go in the pool! I have scares and a few cuts he will flip out if he finds out any ideas they would really help thanks!

Ps. Love the poem!!!

@TheKatSpaz

You could draw a tattoo on your scars with a marker.

[thegigm]

@TheKatSpaz your youtube profile says your 20, If your in university tell him you have too many assignments due very soon, if your in work tell him that it's getting very busy due to the x-mass period coming up. Delay long enough to find some effective ways of covering them (such as idrinktheseawater says you could try covering it with a black marker).

[xmoroseguyx]

Another great work! I have to say, I can see why VeronyckahSometimes, Asked if you were alright, You do look at bit stressed/withdrawn? And thinner, (Thats if its possible for you to be any thinner!)

[ClandestineGirl16X]

Your are so beautiful! Gosh I'm jealous! Your such a great writer too

[MsDementedArts]

I love your choice of words, they flow really well. And hearing you recite it is nice too. :)

[AshleySaves2121]

That was great!!!!!!

[TheMiseryChick13]

I just realised after looking at this video that when I write poems' about self injury that I write it in the third person too. I am not sure why.

Anyway hope all is good.

-May x

[LemonOdette]

@TheMiseryChick13 lol i write it in third person too.

[gringoboy9]

Sharp,Short and to the point !Yeah you do look great,your voice is a bit coarse, have you got the cold I imagine.Still resonates well.

[SoyLatte923]

amazing like all of your other videos <3 I especially liked this poem because It was so relatable for me

[MsScarredSoul]

Liked this one too xx

[BananaJSSI]

That was very good. Two thumbs up. Hope all is well with you.

[TheBball2212]

So good...I wish I could write like you...how are you doing? How long have you been free of self harm? Does it ever get easier to deal with? Sorry for the questions but I have seem so many of ur bids and they have helped me so much. Thanks :)

[VeronyckahSometimes]

i like this a lot(((:...but i've noticed that you've been looking thinner...are you doing alright? youre recovering and all, right?

[idranktheseawater]

@VeronyckahSometimes

Not thinner

If anything I've gained weight

not happy about that...

[amy1bacon]

@idranktheseawater You look healthier :D

[bookcreator]

@idranktheseawater You look great :) And your poetry, as usual, is great too. Take care and stay strong.

[m22frogger]

@idranktheseawater Habe you SI'ed recently? Not to offend intended. But when I write about SI its usually after I either hit or cut.

I hope everything is well though Melissa. *Hugs*

[damansky11]

If you keep doing poetry your gonna spoil me :) I love hearing it !! I'm not even a big poetry guy, but yours seems to 'fill me up' :) Ty for sharing it.

[SerenityMellissa]

i love that you rhyme i can't :( i hope you are doing well. How is the book coming?

[idranktheseawater]

@SerenityMellissa

It's doing good

I'm hoping to send it to a publishing house next week ;)

[gewulentus]

@idranktheseawater My day was pretty shitty, but now with the book stuff going forward I think I've got a reason to celebrate. And I think these re-upload recitings are pretty soulful. (I think that's the word I'm looking for)

[LadyDiamond0fficail]

your poems really relate to me, they are all amazing. I want to thank you for them they help me.

[AmandaJuicebox]

Hope you are doing well.

[rainbowpagan2]
