healing itches

no one tells you that when you first take a blade to your skin. they don't tell you about how the first thing you wear that hugs the cuts will make them burn. they don't tell you about how you'll be finding ways to rub them subtly so no one will see.

healing itches

i want to believe that it'll stop soon. that the scabs will heal over and i'll stop having to run my fingers across these lines to make them feel better. i guess i really just want to believe that i didn't do it again that maybe i'd won finally.

healing itches

if there's anything i could say to make a difference, i'd tell you a thousand times not to do it. it's not worth it. it won't make you feel better. it's just a vicious cycle of destruction and healing and itching. it never goes away. no matter how badly you want to forget, it's there forever and you can't get away from it.

healing really fucking itches.
