Drowning

Running into my room, I lock the door.

Already crying, I crumple up on the floor.

Tears blurring my vision, I fumble for the knife.

Gripping the handle, it is the only thing that can save my life.

Trying to lessen the pain, but to no avail.

Trying to keep quiet, my heartbreaking wails.

Scoring line after line upon myself.

I don't need anyone, I need no help.

But the pain creeps over me

And then washes me away

I'm drowning, and no one notices.
