It’s not about dying
It’s about being alive,
It’s not about resistance to pain,
It’s about the inability to cry,
It’s about bringing yourself,
Back from by the edge,
It’s about balancing yourself,
So you don’t fall from the ledge,
It’s not about becoming someone else,
It’s about hanging on to your image,
It’s not about being brave,
It’s about hiding your lack of courage,
It’s not about dragging others down,
It’s about standing alone,
It’s not about fitting in with others,
It’s about being on your own,
It’s not about the wounds,
It’s more about the scars,
It’s not about the knives,
The razors and glass shards,
It’s not about being open,
It’s about keeping deadly secrets,
It’s not really about the bruises,
The burns, the scratches and cuts,
It’s about feeling again,
Knowing you’re not a machine,
It’s about purging the body,
And no longer feeling unclean,
It’s about seeing the stars through a ceiling,
About believing that things can turn around,
It’s about feeling hopeless and miserable,
Feeling lost and never being found,
It’s about being inside a fantasy,
That you created in your mind,
It’s about hearing all the hidden things,
And seeing through the blind,
It’s about controlling all your actions,
Proving what you can do,
It’s about letting yourself go sometimes,
When no one will worry about you,
It’s not about dying,
It’s about being able to feel,
It’s about being fake,
And pretending that you’re real.

Wonderful.

I was with you until the second to the last line.
Is it about being fake?
The rest of the poem struck me as it's about being true to yourself.
So for me, its not about being fake, but about knowing that you are real.

You have a wonderful way with words, of creating visual images that is excellent.

its about everything and nothing!
but one is for sure!

because if you do!
you die!
what is it about?
why do i want to die?
i want to die because i love life!
i want to die because i want to live!
and i,m looking for my murderer!
but she must be a godess!

its about?
for wolves its about love!
for sheep its about greed!
and there is more!
the cave is deeper with no end!
to your eyes the information is sent!
from the chasm!
the orchasm!
voices from the Hell!
İ dont believe that it is Hell!
but it has to!
it has to!
pain and pleasure!
faith and love!
to feel!
its about to feel!
for sheep and wolf!
and love is more intense than greed!
wolves eat sheep!
i want to cry!
i want to love!
i want to wonder!
i want to know but dont want to know!
i want to go there but i dont want to be there!
no thats not true!

or is it a lie?
you shouldnt know!
but i know!
take me!
so?
what is it about?

the cave is deeper!
