"I'll stop"
I told myself.

Yet, there's had been days
When I had the urges to do so
To see the color red
Dripping from my skin.
Urges to feel the physical burning sensation. Pain.
Pain that felt like ant bite.

The stinging sensation
Is a way I cope with my emotions

Promised that
I'd love my skin
Promised that
I'd take care of it.
But when shit goes down
The promises are broken.
