When the darkness closes in,
I want to be found in your arms,
Safe,
Loved,
Protected,
Not longing for the touch of another.
I wish to hear you
Comfort me
Saying it'll be ok
You tell me to be kind,
And I am
But not to myself
The words that are filled with hate seem to roll off my tongue
You don't understand what it's like to not be able to walk by a mirror and not fucking like what you see.
I'm disgusted by myself
That's why I carve into my skin
To release the mental pain
You tell me to stop
But it's not so easily done
Cause you see the darkness is me..
