How It Starts

Copyright Tasha

it starts off with a burning feeling in my stomach.
my mind goes blank all i can focus on is the blade/the pain relief
what am i doing i’m not being me who am?
i don’t know anymore
shaking the blade slowly cuts through my skin, blood apperaring.
the lies slowly slipping away from my body
this is me the inner me
the young hopeless girl that cuts herself to purify her body.
this girl is me!
