I can't believe
You saw right through to the real me
Yet you didn't flee the scene
You stood sturdy by my side
As I showed you what I hide
Careful were you not to hurt my pride
As I spoke my story
With every detail in its glory
Never did you flinch even as it got gory
My scares your fingers traced
As your arm grabbed my waist
Pulling me in for your embrace
You act was warm and real
In your chest your heart I could feel
As my pain you began to heal
You listened to my every word
As my feelings started to stir
Never did you say it was absurd
Knowing I didn't do it for attention
You released all my tension
In the few words that you mention
You said that you loved me
Only then did your eyes get blurry
You couldn't stand to see my pain
Knowing its so bad I cut my veins
When I could no longer be restrained
Thinking its your fault you didn't see
My hidden arms covered with sleeves
As you stood carefree
My heart you defend
As you promised to be my friend
Asking to bring my blades to their end
For the first time I can truly promise
As the pain has begun to fade
As you saved the day
For it you who set me free
Giving me the power
To finally just be me
