Burnt (TW.)



My depression sometimes turns into aggression and obsession, some say this is crazy but when you’re in my head you can’t help but appear as lazy, maybe just maybe one day I’ll stop self harming because everyone tells me how it’s not charming. They say what will your children say about your scars one day? You can’t help but feel hopeless, worthless leaving you wordless without a purpose when the urges take over you because in this life there are no reversals, you can’t take it back feeling like your stuck in a maniacs head, you can’t even get out of bed, stuck with the feeling of dread, so you  shut down and cut, holding a grudge to everyone who has made you vulnerable, uncomfortable and unrecoverable, so you set aside your feelings and think about suicide instead you let all the good things slide because being in your body is being fireside a burning flame and not caring if you get burnt.
