How to let out feelings of wanting to self harm?

[Fiction]

I really needed to burn myself but i am trying to stop. I wrote this poem instead. Does this mean anything to anyone? Is it any good? I jsut want to know if this is a good way to let out my feelings and weather i can actually turn my urges to self harm into something good. So your commetn on my poem would be appreciated :)

These scars are just a part of my past
These injuries fade but the memories last
The feeling of fear no one understands
The feeling of pain my sadness demands
The guilt that i feel, i know i've done wrong
The shunning away when i need to belong
The hidden emotion i'm too scared to reveal
Because the pain i inflict is all that i feel
The shame in the face of the people you tell
It's just my way to cope and be well.

That poem is great!
And this is usually how I let out my feelings of self harm, too. Writing just has this liberating feeling, it's so expressive...

I used to write poems all the time, but I was never as good as this. Keep at it, it's great to have a healthy way of expressing yourself.
