You Think I Stopped (MAJOR TW for self-injury)
I’m sorry
But it wasn’t possible.
I’m scratching again,
Letting my skin
Become broken and disturbed
Until blood slowly
Trickles out of my
New wounds.
I’m sorry
I broke the promise.
I wish I hadn’t
But I desperately
Need this pain
So I can keep living.
I’m sorry that I started
Scratching again.
