Temptation.

The pressure.

The sadness.

The feeling numb in your heart.

It plays on your mind.

Every day.

All day.

Something will trigger it.

Something will set the feelings.

Temptation.

You meet it again.

You don't use it.

Just watch it.

You remember.

The feelings.

The pain.

The numbness.

The blood.

You remember.

Last time.

And the time before.

You feel tempted.

So damn tempted.

The thoughts.

They come back.

Do you do it.

Or do you not.

Consequences.

You will sit.

Through the day.

Knowing its there.

Knowing what you did.

At night you will stare at it.

Feel it.

Regret it.

You have to hide it.

Scared.

Scared in case someone finds out.

It's hard.

When you do it.

And when you don't.

You wonder.

What's left.

Who is there to talk to.

No one.

No.

There is always someone.

You think they don't know.

But they know.

You fight with your feelings.

Not knowing what to do.

You find someone to talk to.

Someone to calm the feelings.

It works.

But for how long.

Stay strong.

They say.

You can do it.

It works.

At the time.

You think.

Am I really strong.

Can I really do it.

You stop yourself.

You're safe for now.

Until the triggering.

Its like a circle.

A movie on replay.

Its tempting.

So damn tempting.

You look at the scars.

You think.

You remember.

Do you really want more.

You put it away.

You can get past it.

It will get better.

After a storm there is sun.

Put it down.

You're not alone.

Never alone.

Talk to someone.

It will help.

Be strong.

Hold it together.

You will thank me in the future.

I love you.

Others love you too.

You're beautiful.

You're amazing.

You're wonderful.

You're human.

We all make mistakes.

Don't listen to the bad.

Don't blame yourself.

Stay strong.
