it all started with the first cut. just one small cut was all i needed. it made the emotional pain go away. it made me feel human, a human with feelings. the first cut thats all it was. it slowly grew into more, the first cut, its seeable to many but you. the first cut came from you. thats all it was. everyone was the first cut. they all came and they never left. the silk white lines across my skin. the red lines left but the silkish white lines they will only come, never go.
