though I'm clean I cant help but miss it the little red drops the way I was in control of it the stinging the pain its been 6 months and its all I think about its messed up really its something that only some will understand even people who do it don't always get it we just know we do it for something I miss it the understanding that in that very moment I'm in control of my own pain that I'm in control and can be whenever I need to that it doesnt all have to be mental that I can release everything through I tiny little slit in my skin but I cant do it again cant break the promises cant go back. some days I really wish I could though.
