My name was Rebekah Tapp (I was married on May 5, 2007, so it is now Rebekah McClain). I have a few things posted on this site. Most of them were written so long ago when I was in so much pain and really, I needed to send an update.

The people that have left comments telling me that I will get through this were right. In a few of the stories, I mention my "boyfriend." He is now my husband. I haven't cut myself or had anything to do with SI since September 16, 2002.

-------

The blood so fresh,
The cut so real,
Only others that hurt like me,
Know how it feels

A world so dark,
A world so cold,
A world so lonely,
With no one to hold

You could never understand,
The pain I have within,
I feel there is nothing I can trust,
But myself and my feelings within

I feel so alone,
In my dark and scary world,
I sit in the corner of my room,
So tightly curled

I am a lost little girl,
With no where to run,
No one wants anything to do with me,
No one wants me to have fun

I don't know how,
To escape these feelings inside,
I look around as I run,
But there is no place to hide

Everywhere I run,
Every corner I see,
There is no place for my feelings,
There is no place for me
