Suicidal

I slice my wrist in the same spot

Opening and reopening the same cuts repeatedly

People say I’m crazy, but I promise I’m not

Just suicidal

At least I think I am

 I’ve been to depressed to even know lately

Feeling alone and scared

Feeling hurt and not cared for

They say sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you

 That’s not true

Sticks and stones don’t break your bones

They only create small bruises

 Words, they cut like a knife

And we say things we say we don’t mean but we do

Everyone else was thinking it anyways so what’s the point of lying

Calling someone fat

Means they are in fact fat

Calling someone stupid

Means they are in fact stupid

Calling me worthless

Means I am

So not meaning things is not existent

It is not true

And we may think that there are good people in this world

And there are

But the truth is in the end everyone is going to hurt you

Some will destroy you

Others will be like a rip of a Band-Aid

In the end everyone hurts you

But you get to choose who will hurt you

And I chose myself

And so I do

I cut

And cut

And cut

Till my wrists go sore

I chose myself
