Scarlet Tears: A collection of poems, stories and quotes about self harm

Labels

Self harm isn't a label

You can't slap it on someone's chest

And say 'Hey, all you are is emo

Even at your very best!'

You can't group us together

You can't say we're all the same

Because something different went wrong along the path of life

For each of us, and that's a shame.

But life goes on

I know that, and so do many girls, we do.

I know there's a space, a place for me

And one day, one for you.
