Everyday

I once began thinking
Life was too short to waste

Now realising after not doing it for 5 months
That maybe it wasn't such a good thing to stop!

I was amazed I have gone 5 months without putting the blade to my skin
And now I miss it, and wish I had never stopped!

I miss the adrenaline I get from seeing the blood pour

I miss seeing it run swiftly down my arm

I miss the feeling of satisfaction and relief!

I miss my identity!

It was apart of my everyday life. And I just shut it off like a light switch!

I thought it was for the best, until now I realise, it makes me happy!

I was getting rid of apart of me
Making the new me a fake me!

I want the old me, the real me back!

Please tell me what you think

    when i stopped i realized this same thing too. it seems easy until you actually quit. i cheated some. i have been doing a few. my parents found out so they made my stop. that totally sucks. becuase i knew i couldn't do it by myself. and that made me feel worse. i should shut up, praise for not cutting for five months! good write. keep it up.

    Huni, I know how you feel and I hope it never becomes a part of you again because it is NOT good for you. I promise. I love you, and I'm here if you need to talk.

    Hmmm...no matter what you feel, cutting isn't something that you should miss and want to continue doing. I use to do that and I'd get the urge to pick up that blade again, but then I think "after everything I've been through to stop, do I really want to start again?" and yeah it's hard but you're doing the right thing by not doing it. And hey, the new you, isn't a fake you, it's just a different one. I commend you for being able to portray your exact emotions in this peace. I hope you continue to fight the fight with words, and not with a blade..
