Spoils of war with yourself

Many people think other people cut to get attention, they think it is cool. Well, there are people who do that no doubt, but then there are the people who try to hide the scars. Why do people cut ? There are multiple reasons: it pains more than your misery hence numbing the pain, basically acting like an anesthesia. The other reason people cut is in hopes of dying , to end the pain and misery . And last is to blind them, make them feel that there are pains worse than what they are going through. Numbing their soul...cutting is a cheap anesthesia. You can get it for free , has the same effect and it also is a reminder of the pain and misery and what you have been through long after the pain has gone.Kind of like a medal you can say.

But little do people realise they are risking their life and it can result in pain to the loved ones. There is someone out there who you have seen maybe once but that person you are the north star on a cloudy night.Pain blinds them , makes them forget they are loved. But at times love is the cause of the pain.
One day  they will look back at these scars , I call them trophies, spoils of war. Which war? The war with them selves, the one which they won. The solider lived through the war and is a survivor. But while the war is going on , whether I know the solider or not, I want them to know I am here for them.. they are never alone. They are here for a REASON.
