(Sorry feeling down at the moment and slightly bored)

One more cut.
I knew it wouldn't be enough to ease my internal pain, a deep sickening pain that tortured me daily, but... Why was I so driven to keep trying?
I stopped for a second closing my eyes fighting tears which were not even there, I was sitting in my bathroom leaning against its grubby walls where grime and the damp moisture clung deep. I felt the hot steam of my bath rising upward and nestling in my hair creating iridescent pearls of vapour. But even though the moisture and heat was soothing my throat was as dry as bones, my tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth and all I could taste was salt.
I knew I should stop, but whenever I saw my blood gently slide down my arm or feel its warmth, I felt even more alive and alert. It was just a sign that I was still here. Not dead and lifeless. But still had the warmth of life flowing through my veins.

Painful Cycle

There you go again losing sense of pride and faith. Feeling worthless you piece of paper. Crumpled and ready to be thrown away. Be positive they say but looking up from the damage of blades.

Maybe..

Broken promises of a better day to come. We strive to go on lonelier than ever before. Thinking of those memories that cut like knives, we soon turn to things that can take our lives, but does it do.

A Deathly Feather

I like razor blades. I like how shiny they are. How the light reflects off them. How elegant yet deadly the tip is. I like razor blades. I like how they feel in my hand. Delicate and light.

Hiding In The Deep

Hiding. In. The. Shadows deep. Barely on the ground. Living. In. My. Own world. No one else around. Taking. Over. In. And. Out I begin to zone. Want. You. All. Just please. Leave me alone. All. Alone.

I'm sorry for sharp tongues, knives, and days I don't move from bed.

I'm sorry I'm not enough. I'm sorry I don't want to do anything buy lie in grayscale lighting I'm sorry I'm pathetic, like broken strings. I'm sorry I'm quiet, like a mournful flower.

Empty

My whole being is empty, Nothing within me exists, I miss the life I once had, The life where everything fit.

Very good post with fantastic description, a bit sad though! 😥

Yeah, someone at our school very sadly self harmed but it was her that inspired me to write this. Thank you very much! 💜
