Description
I thought people who loved you weren’t meant to hurt you. I thought friends up built, didn’t tear down. I thought love was a good thing. I thought friends could be trusted. I thought boyfriends were positive. I thought break ups were for people unsure of what they want, for people who didn’t care about each other.

Apparently I was wrong.

I thought self-harm was for the suicidal. I thought suicide was for the weak. I thought death was only for old people. I thought scars were for accidents. I thought being alone involved not having any friends. I thought that I could always trust my parents, tell them everything. I thought life was not a choice but a necessity.

Apparently I was wrong.

I thought I wouldn’t be the one to have scars. I thought I would always have friends who cared about me. I thought having a boyfriend would be a good idea. I thought that I would always be happy. I thought I’d never want to kill myself. I thought that if I had friends, I would never be alone. I thought I would never die.

Guess what?

I was wrong.
