If you struggle with self injury
you are not "a cutter."
You are a person.
You are not only your pain.
You are not only wounds and scars.
You are also better things.
You are: Possibility and promise,
Hope and healing, Daydreams,
Favorite books and favorite songs,
You are the people that you love,
And the people who love you.
You are hope and change and 
Things worth fighting for.
This is all your story
And your story isn't over.
