I’m 16 and I’ve been self-harming for only a couple of months. Attached is a photo of my right arm. I’ve also cut my thighs, my feet, my left arm etc. My right arm was the worst. I’ve also burnt my left hand with cigarettes or matches before. I’ve written lots of suicide notes and wanted to kill myself a lot but I’ve never had the courage, or gotten to the right point to follow it through yet.
The Darkness
how we fear the darkness
all-consuming and enticing
alluring and yet repulsive
we fear the darkness
so we scrape away at the edges of it with fire
looking for some light.Reflections
The telephone never rings
I think I’m sad
But the tears don’t come out
Are you afraid of me??
My mind is liquor not water
Its deep but it does not reflect
It only intoxicates me.
The door never opens
Is it right for your lungs to be black
For some cheap buzz?
Is it right for your arms to cry
Instead of your eyes?Its Me
Who?
Me?
I feel someone else
Who are you?
I give you this part of me
You see me, you my feel pain
We are so many
But you hate to be alone
But these are my tears
Its me thats crying.
