By skill, not force.

Nature's first green is gold, 
Her hardest hue to hold. 
Her early leaf's a flower; 
But only so an hour. 
Then leaf subsides to leaf. 
So Eden sank to grief, 
So dawn goes down to day. 
Nothing gold can stay.

When you hurt yourself and don’t put a band-aid on it because you think you deserve the pain

                                            Your body creates a natural band-aid to keep you protected.

When you want to tear open your skin

                                            Your skin fights back, creates a tough skin of scar tissue to prevent it happening again.

When you take all those pills because you’ve had enough

                                             Your stomach contracts to get rid of them

Because your body

                  Wants you

To live.
