Just Me And Self-Harm

by ºCrimsonTearsº   Jun 5, 2005


Lord, I'm sorry I was tempted once more,
I have been weak once again,
I took a razor blade to my wrist,
I was misled by the pain.

Please don't punish me for my sin,
For I know not what I do,
My heart is broken and I feel so alone,
It's my only way to feel true.

My scars remind me that the past is real,
I cannot overcome my depression,
It fills my head, my life, my thoughts,
Self-harm is my one true obsession.

I can let down my disguise and drop my mask,
Prepare myself to finally feel,
Self-harm knows who I truly am,
With it I can always be real.

No pretenses, no hiding, just me and self-harm,
To my heart it holds the key,
It allows me to feel, it allows me to breathe,
With self-harm I can be ME.

Dedicated to those of you that self-harm. It's hard, I know. Votes and comments much appreciated.
