Pain

[I Love Bubblegum]

((i keep submitting these from my notebook so thats why there r alot))

 

You ask me why I do it

And expect me to explain

This is hard for me to talk about

But I do it for the pain.

 

 

You know how hard it is to stop

I promise you I tried

I promise not to leave you

But my heart's already died.

 

You say you thought I was happy

I could always fake a smile

You ask how long I've been like this

I've been hurting for a while.

 

 

I lay the scissors on my arm

I see your face in my mind

I hear you tell me not to

But deep down you’re far too kind.

 

 

As I lay here writing this, heartfelt

Blood flowing fast from my arm

I remember the promise I made you

My promise to never self harm.

 

 

I know it may seem weird to you

But it makes my pain go away

To leave me here alive and well

To fake smiles for another day.
