Poem Title:
Poem
[beforehand i just want to let you know that i wrote this in honor of November 17th. which is To Write Love On Her Arms Day. im hoping to come up with a better one before than. but i still hope you enjoy this quickly-wrote one(: ] this is about me. this is my story. it is about my struggle, my fall downs, && all the breakdowns. this is about every wound i placed upon my body. over 60 self inflicted wounds, that as my story went on they began to heal. i stoped writing "give up" i began to write love on my arms this is about me. this is my story. it is about my past. how it haunted me for years, && how im still running from some of it. this is how i went from a hood rat, to me actually caring about myself. i began to write love on my arms this is about me. this is my story. it is about how i learned to keep the bottle off of my nightstand. i dont need liquor running through my veins 24/7. i started to look at life through sober eyes. i began to write love on my arms && as i wrote this day after day, i saw that i was loved. i found comfort in better things then pills, liquor, && razorblades. && even though i am still in healing, my story is not over. && it will never be. i still write love on my arms
