Try to help yourself

October 1, 2017

They say that when you've got problems

Opening up yourself to others will help

And so I did

I tried opening up to others

I started with a small sharp edge

Opening up my skin

I tried opening up to others but there was no one around but me

It seemed that my own body does not want me to open up to others

My body slowly stops me

It does not want me to be

My first attempt turned into scar.

I tried again in the hopes of success

Then I cut deep down

This time there was somebody there

But they don't seem to be uncomfortable with me try to cure myself

Too uncomfortable that immediately after seeing me

They wanted to close me up

They closed me up with stitches
