I don't do it for sympathy,
I don't do it for attention,
It takes my mind off everything that hurts in my life,
When it cuts through my skin and I see the blood,
I feel relief,
Like the problem has gone away,
I know it hasn't and it will return,
Probably ten times worse,
But for those few minutes nothing matters,
I feel nothing,
I wish I was normal,
But I'm not,
I can't deal with certain things,
This is my relief,
Please dont judge me.
