This thread has been labeled as triggering, particularly on the subject of self harm, by the original poster or by a Moderator. The contents of this thread might therefore not be suitable for certain sensitive users. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.

Silver, shiny, sharp,
Fallen mercy to the blade,
With a single drag across the skin,
You know its another battle you cannot win,
With single cut you've ever made,
Just remember you've become the victim of your mind,
With a single swipe of that blade,
The stresses of life start unwind,
Another battle you cannot win,
The blade has beat you once again
You've become a victim of you mind,
Fallen mercy to the metal touch of a blade.

'There will be bad days, there will be good days, there will be really bad days, and really good days, and days that are not bad or good but just simply suck, but either way you got through it and you are here today and that is all that really matters''

Great job! I really like this, and can relate. Keep writing.




From day one I talked about getting out
But not forgetting about
How all my worst fears are letting out
He said, "Why put a new address on the same old loneliness?"
When breathing just passes the time
Until we all just get old and die

My blog is open to all, those whom are easily triggered avoid, it's a story about a girl and her life and how far she has come over the years. If you read it, I hope it inspires you to keep fighting and to NEVER give up!
When you can no longer think of a reason to continue, you must think of a reason to start over.

This is amazing and definitely relatable. Great job!

Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive

I like this because it's short but full of emotion. I also can relate to this, as can many.
This is good.

If you ever need someone to talk to, let me know <3
