I want to cut.
I want to bleed.
I want to punish something for my pain.
But I will never hurt anybody.
I hate hurting anyone.
So I feel the need to punish myself—
But I won’t.
Because then they’ll win.
And I don’t want to hurt you.
I don’t personally hurt myself in any way. I’ve just been reading a lot of fiction books about mental health struggles (some of which are getting a little toooooo relatable) and I do find myself going down dark thought paths so it is a little inspired by my own thoughts.
