Crave or Guilt?

I need it, I want it
I have it, I ban it
Crave or guilt?

I have no way - I find one
I hide it, don't show it
Crave or guilt?

I want to do it again
I want it to leave
Crave or guilt?

I want it,
Can't have it,
Crave or guilt?

    Wow, this one was powerful and really pulled at my heart. I hate the self harm things bc I see no good in it. The pain we cause to ourselves, the reminders carved upon the skin. I feel it is not a release, but a caging of ones emotions. We must release them and not bottle them any further into ourselves. It was well written, I really liked it

    I THOUGHT.........

    yes I understand, there is a thin line between craving and the often unwanted feeling of guilt,

    I hear you

    been there and its a sad lonely place to be. But I will tell you this. keep reaching out to people and sooner or later hopefully the sooner lol but someone WILL COME ALONG and if your open to what is in the mystery of life you will slowly but surely come to find peace and love.
    Please think twice before acting and know you ARE NOT ALONE!
    if ya want you can take my hand
    on to the write itself it is well written and expresses such great emotion from deep within.

    This is very sad

    When one feels this way they so need to get with others and let it pass for to remain alone and let the mind take over is never good . Thoughts within a human being can drive one crazy if you let it . No one is free from it but one must learn to guide your mind to better thoughts to be free of it .Sure we all have thoughts of this nature at one time or another in our life .But to stray alone and harm ourselves is no ones fault but our own for this choice is the most painful and why would one want to hurt themselves for what others have led us to . Open your eyes and know it is your very own temple you are distructive to and you within can stop it but you must unlock the doors you hide behind and find a person you can pour your heart out to and they will help you understand . Often tiny things are locked away that eats on our soul and if you let it go without help it wont ever let you go

    Wow this is powerful; intense with emotion. I hope you manage to come out of self harm fully if you haven't yet. Good poem.
