There were many things In just one day That would cause me to grab the blade I rembered the shame in your eyes Whenever you saw fresh cuts I can't bear the pain again I remember how I lost something That I loved because I would resort To slashing my flesh over and over I knew I would lose you
Reason for writing:
I've gone since March 27th without cutting and on my one month "anniversary" of being clean, the guy I liked asked me out. I always felt it was something to remind me of what you can lose by being so selfish and I understand now that I could lose a hell of a lot more than just my boyfriend. With those of you with the same problem, keep strong.
