You ever lay in bed aching just thinking about how life hurts?
Tears start to fall slowly and soon you're just crying about how you want the pain to stop.
You want the pain to no longer hurt you or kill you inside.
I know how it is. You cry about how so many people told you to kill yourself and you're classmates tell you that you're not loved or wanted and you're parents say they never wanted you and you're a mistake.
You cry while feeling hurt, betrayed, angry, and like you're sick of living. You think to yourselves, kill yourself, no one wants you and you're a waste of space.
After you finish crying, you stand up, grab that blade, fixing it against your skin. Then you cut open your skin, while bleeding out. One cut, two cuts, three cuts more, let your blade take away the pain. But there's a way, a way to stop it without cutting yourself. Write it down, cut paper, break things that won't hurt you or get you in trouble.
