I'd rather be fighting for peace than at peace with fighting

I'd trade it away
To receive my way
I want to end it
I get into a fit
I save myself with pain
In the end it's a gain
My secret, my sanity
My safety, my vanity
Marred by unintention
Scarred by self intervention

The author's comments:
I wrote this about 7 months ago, when I was really depressed. What I was depressed about was a lot, and I was really brittle back then. It started when I got out of a messed up relationship with a girl ("I love you a LOT too soon"). Then my mother had a stroke. My father was also an alcoholic. I then got rejected by a few girls, thus lowering my self esteem. I now have gained a lot of confidence. Near the lowest part of this I became suicidal.

If anyone wants help with things like this, or wants to ask me questions feel free to ask.
