As I sit here and bleed,
I wonder where I am suppose to be,
Never did I think that this would be me,
But as each day goes by,
The more and more I cry,
The deeper I go through my skin,
Crying from within,
So you can stitch me up and staple me back together again,
But never will the pain inside me disappear from my sin,
As each and every single day goes by,
You take my blood and make me cry,
I'll fight the thoughts in my head,
But the urges will always begin again,
Until I hold the blade and cut through my body,
Wondering where this addiction will end.
’Happiness can be found in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.’
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
There may not always be a direct answer to a problem, but there is always a way to get through it.
Strength is the best quality of the human mind and body, and I believe everyone has it; whether they believe it or not. Look for that tiny glimmer of hope deep inside yourself and once you've found it let it blossom, glow and illuminate your life.
There's a lot of emotion and it's relatable, too. Stay safe. <3
If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first
This is quite emotional and tells how addictive self-harm can get. I'm sorry you're going through this. Hang in there, you are strong enough to beat this addiction.
