My best friend helped me through a really difficult year where the longest I was clean from self harm was about 48 days. She has been with me through everything and I could never thank her enough. As of the day I submit this poem, I am 40 days clean. I have never felt this happy in my life. Now I'm learning to love myself with the help of my best friend and God. I hope this inspires hope in other people who are going down the same path as I was. I hope that it helps people to realize that this doesn't have to be the end, because God loves you, and somebody out there is going to love you the way you wished you loved yourself.
