You Saved Me

Location

You saved my life. 

I was slowly killing myself.

One slash at a time.

But now I am on my way to recovery. 
You standing by my side, what could be better?

Hearing your voice comforts me, making me think better of myself.

When you hug me I feel like I'm safe, that nothing can ever stop me. 

THe scars I have are not a sign of weakness.

It shows I was able to live through what life had to throw at me.

I will wear my scars with pride and hop that I can get better and never go back to the person I once was.
