It's been nine long months since I've felt the smooth cold surface of a razor glide across my skin

It's been nine long months since I've felt the wash of relief as the sharp metal kissed my skin, only to be followed by a wave of shame

It's been nice months since I've clutched the edge of my desk trying to hold myself back from the thing I wanted to dearly

Nine months since I gave into temptation

It's been nine months since I realized that I was good enough

283 days since I picked myself up from the hole that I dug

6,792 hours that I've spent trying other ways to calm myself down

407,520 minutes that I have been in control
