You don't even see the things that go by.
Time flies when you're having fun.
But one day your body can't handle

I cut my wrist today, but not because I wanted to die. Of course, people won't ask. They will just assume that's why.
I needed to know that I could still feel something, other than the pain I felt inside. I watched it for a while until finally the bleeding started to subside.
