My left leg hurts.
Today I cut myself. 5 times on my left leg.
I think they were pretty deep.
They were still bleeding slightly, hours later.
And they hurt like hell right now.
I got a speeding ticket today.
And for some reason, I couldn’t stop crying afterwards.
I had to relieve the pain.
Luckily I had my exacto in my purse.
And just like that, I was cutting again.
It was almost a month.
Almost a month without self inflicted physical harm.
And the last time, wasn’t even a cut.
It was just my finger tracing a line on my arm.
A nervous habit?
No. I needed the pain.
I could feel the wetness as I was scrapping, and I kept digging
Harder and faster.
It's almost healed now.
Today I got a speeding ticket.
And I cut my left leg 5 times.
I spent the rest of the trip in silence.
Except for the harsh sounds of my open fist
Slapping my face as hard as I could.
Over and over.
Sometimes I do that.
I hit myself because sometimes the cutting
Just isn’t enough.
Nothing is ever enough.
And by nothing, I mean everything.
The cutting is not enough.
The hitting is not enough.
I am not enough.
I’m really light headed
All day today really.
And my eyelids are heavy.
And my limbs are heavy.
I feel like I am sleepwalking.
I always feel like I'm sleepwalking.
Just put me out of my misery.
Please just put me out of my misery.
It hurts.
Everything hurts.
So please.
Just put me out of my goddamn misery.
