My Addiction

by Shotput Girl   Jan 29, 2009


My depression
Gets deeper and
All I wish for
Is the feel of
The cool blade
Against my skin

Almost every
Night I
Give in to
My addiction

My life
Falls apart
Around me
And all I need
Is a way
To escape

As the blade
Makes cuts
I feel the pain
Come off of
My heart
And I no
Longer
Feel what
He did to me
But the pain
Only lasts
For a few
Minutes
So I give in
And make more
Cuts to feel
Relieved

Everybody sees
A girl with
A smile
Spread on
Her face
And they
Think
She's back
To normal
But no
I am not
Okay
I am far from it
My addiction
Proves that

I sit up
Late at night
Crying
And that's
When I pull out
The blade
And I make the
Cuts
Then I fall asleep
With my pillow
Full of
My tears

They think
I've stopped
But it's only
Gotten worse

I can't even
Look at myself
In the mirror
It hurts to
Look back at
Myself with
A smile spread
Right on my face
