I Promise
I still get the urges,
I still wanna do it,
Make the wrong choices,
And ruin my life,
More then its already is.
I still think of doing it,
With out any regrets,
I think of the relief,
And how I might disappear,
Then I wonder what happens
after,
When they find out,
That I'm not 'ok',
That I'm not 'normal' anymore.
It stops me.
I had a great life!
Friends!
A strong family!
And a beautiful body, without
scars,
And now... I lack it all.
I ruined it all! And
I still get the urges!
Does that make me selfish?
No.
It would make me selfish,
If I gave into those urges.
Because I don't need,
It.
Any of it.
I can survive on my own.
And I'm going to prove it to
you.
To all of you.
I promise.
