A Change In My Ways? Poem by Chelsea Lybbert

A Change In My Ways?

Rating: 5.0


Smoking, drinking, biting nails,
Common habits and addictions,
The ones everyone thinks of.
But what about another,
Not so much a habit,
But an addiction,
An addiction to pain,
Or perhaps,
A loss of pain.
Knowing that when your heart breaks,
And is pulled down,
Causing myself physical pain,
Blocks my mental pain.
But is that worth,
The pain I cause others,
The looks of worry and hurt,
That is caused by my scars,
My new scabs, and open wounds.
Can I stop the addiction,
To deal with pain,
And keep my friends,
Who mean so much to me?
