You'll wish every second, For someone to save ya, Only to hate yourself, For inconveniencing your saviour. Day in and day out, Self loathing will grow, Until no more can fill, That tiny head of yours. Time and time again you'll fall, Just the same as I still do, But you'll pick yourself up again, Though it hurts inside to, Knowing each time you screw up or give in.
