TW SH vent on mental health

"

TW S3LF H@RM


I’ve replaced blades 

With pens

With a keyboard

I write my feelings

I don’t carve them

Yet 

It’s never enough

I cover my ears

But I still hear the whispers

I close my eyes

But I still see my hand

Holding the blade

Painted with my blood

I try to stop the memories

But my body is covered in

Reminders 

“I’m scared you’ll relapse”

Echos in my mind

As I’m drowning in my reminders

That no matter how far I’ve come

These thoughts still chase me

And I’m afraid

If there’s a day I can’t run anymore
