I can’t stop
Another day I starve myself
I can’t stop
Another day I abuse my body
I can’t stop
Another day I tear pieces of my flesh away with nails and teeth
I can’t stop
Another day I lose myself to my voices
I can’t stop
Another day I won’t let myself rest
I can’t stop
Another day I inhale toxic gases
I can’t stop
Another day I write a poem because no one would listen
I can’t stop
Another day I cry and break down, all alone
I can’t stop
Another day I can’t bear my own reflection
I can’t stop
Another day I realise that I’m all Daddy has
I can’t stop
Another day I think about his death
I can’t stop
Another day I claim to be fine
I can’t stop
Another day I sacrifice my being for someone who’s not me
I can’t stop
Another day I scold me for my imperfections
I can’t stop
Another day I give myself the things I deserve
I can’t stop
Another day I feel drawn to a knife’s sharp edge
I can’t stop
Another day I think of falling off a cliff
I can’t stop
Another day I think of the inevitable
I can’t stop
Another day I collapse due to physical and mental exhaustion
I can’t stop
Another day I overwork myself because of expectations
I can’t stop
Another day I wake up to find I’m still alive
I can’t stop
Another day I believe my delusions
I can’t stop
Another day my train of taught halts
I can’t stop
Another day I think of how disappointing I am
I can’t stop
Another day I feel out-of-place
I can’t stop
Another day I wish I wasn’t born
I can’t stop
Another day I try to put you out your misery
I can’t stop
Another day I scare myself
I can’t stop
Another day I use my fists and a wall to inflict damage to my skull
I can’t stop
Another day I enjoy peace in my concussion
I can’t stop
Another day I have an existential crisis
I can’t stop
Another day I wait for my healing
I can’t stop
Another day I wish my heart wasn’t beating
I can’t stop
Because it never stops
