I don't mar my flesh as a cry for help, I'm really quite strong enough on my own. I don't pick at scabs for attention, Sometimes, I just want to see if I can reach bone. This hasn't been written to make you worry; I really don't want to die. I just want to help you understand, and tell you my reasons why. I'm not trying to make you upset, And I don't exactly say this with pride. What I find is I need to express The ugliness I have inside.
