Scared for Life

Copyright, Beth H

How can something that causes me so much pain
Bring me such pleasure
How can my show my weakness
Bring me such strength
How can I take control over something
That has so much control over me
The cravings of pain remind me I messed up, bad
I did it not as a cry for attention
But as a scream for help

They continued to yell
And it continued to get worse
I wish I could stop it
But I can t
As much as I try it is still there
Haunting me
Reminding me
Scaring me
For life
