Self-Harm Poem by Pratyaksh Bhati
Self-Harm
I harm myself,
because it makes me calm,
I cut myself,
to suppress the feelings within,
I let it bleed,
to hope my pain goes with it.

The pain doesn't go away—and maybe it never will. But congrats, you've just unlocked another level of hurt— Physical pain that only pulls you deeper into the emotional one.
