Tears

The loud sound of my tears,

Colliding with my pillow,

Falling, with no hope

Just like me

The tears start to burn my face

The pain I feel is so crucial

Inside and out

There's no escaping it

I count the days

The days since the last time I cut myself

I update the number on my left wrist every day

Reminding me to not do it again

Because the pain is temporary

And, in the end, nothing will change

Everything will feel the same

The pain I'm trying to replace with a different kind,

Will still be there

More powerful than ever

It's been 18 days, as of today

I barely get by

I convince myself that self-harm isn't worth it,

Damaging my body for such stupid reasons,

But it's difficult

Because I still remember how it feels

The cutting

The joy I find within my blood oozing from my body

I feel so powerful

But in reality, it's the complete opposite

I've become so weak that it's my only option

And I will forever remain alone.
