Analysis of Hurting Here (TW for mention of su!c!de and self-injury)



I want to hurt
And kill myself
Once again,
But I’m so
Unable to
Because of the
Promises I made
And now regret
So much.
Here we go again
While I feel weak
If I ever cry,
While I stuff everything
Down beneath.
All day I act like
I’m fine,
But when I’m just really
Dying inside.
