Scissors pt 2

Scars slowly fading away

An urge that feels

Impossible to beat

This battle that is a

Constant loss

 

Butchered skin waiting

Questioning

Will I be whole?

Should these

Wounds be reopened

 

Blade is a

Poisonous addiction

Maybe I'm not

Sorry

I started

 

Couldn't help that

Life got out of control

Aided in the beginning

Refused to let it end

 

It's sad really

Relapse I mean

Three years

Clean

Blade called out to me

 

Will it ever be over?

Will I ever stop

Scaring my body

 

Will I ever

Learn how to

Love this person I am or

Will I die trying to

Figure it out?

So I was looking over Scissors and couldn't edit but thought more needed to be said
