She hit herself
She cried
"It is all my fault"
"You would all be better off without me"

I cry too, for this little girl has grown up to hate herself and I have not been able to stop her. I genuinely do not know what to do.

At certain moments, when I see her holding up her head with her hands, not even bothering to wipe the tears from her face, I can feel my heart breaking too.

I was once this little girl, with my eyes full of tears.
How can I love her so much? I feel my heart. How can she hate herself? Seeing her break, makes me fall apart.
