Regret

I looked at the photo album

And memories came flooding back

So many dark things,

Just a thick shade of black

Normal people would think,

"I had such a good time"

or, "I had so much fun"

But not me

I thought,

"I started cutting right after that"

Or, "That's the day I threw up,

So I wouldn't feel fat"

Normal people would've seen their birthday photo

And remember their gifts

Or party guests

But not me

I remembered being so deperate

That I cut myself with my house key

For once, I'd just like to remember the good times

Not the bad ones

But their are tons

Tons of awful images

That are stuck in my mind

I replay them, time after time

Then I saw that picture

It was taken on a autumn day

The same day

That I almost threw my life away

I still remember it clearly

How I signed the word "beautiful"

In my leg, sincerely

I thought I was gone for good

But I woke up

With my leg, covered in blood

That's an event I'll never forget

And sometimes the waking up part,

Is the part I regret.
