I sit here on my bed
despite not being by myself
feeling alone and invisible.
I find myself wanting
to curl up under my blanket
so I can cry while
I fight the urge to cut myself
to take away the pain that I feel inside.
But I won't give in...
I won't allow anyone to see me cry...
Not now...
Not ever.
