Here I am

Here I am,
Midnight lying wide awake.
Here I am,
two a.m, my thoughts are going insane.

Here I am 3 a.m,
Trying to fight the urge.
It's so very difficult,
I always lose this battle.

Someone notices the marks on my skin,
They ask why I did it,
I couldn't explain.
They just wouldn't understand.

Here I am,
Misunderstood and put down.
Holding my knees to my chest,
As I let the blade skate across my skin.
