My teacher asked me a few questions
I answered the questions wrongly
Now everyone is laughing at me
I feel the tears crawl up my throat
I feel the tears flood my vision
It is happening again
I ask to go to the restroom
My teacher lets me go
I run out of the classroom
I go past the restroom
Run into the closet
Lock the door so no one finds me
Curl up into a ball start to cry
Now start to sob
I hear a familiar voice outside the closet
I get quiet and listen
It is HIM but who is with him
It is my best friend
What are they talking about
They are talking about a date they went on
She knows we dated once
She knows that I hate him
But she went behind my back
She was the only one I truly trusted
Now I have no one
I curl back up
Start sobbing again
I reach for my pocket
I pull out the blade
I pull up my sleeve
There are a million scars on my arm
I add a few more
Cut one, two, three, four, five
The feeling too familiar
Too relaxing
I lay back
Stop sobbing
Hold my bleeding arm out
Wait until the bleeding slows down
Put the blade away
Wipe my face off
Pull my sleeve down
Go to the restroom
Fix myself up
Go back to class
No one notices me
The bell ring end of school
I rush out of class
There's a huge crowd
Someone runs into me
Knocks me down
He catches me by my arm
And my sleeve falls down he sees them
I jump up and run away
Back to my closet
I start to sob again
I start to pull out my blade again
But he enters the closet
I freeze and tell him to leave
But he doesn't leave
