Sick

My mind is sick,

and I am tired,

of feeling this way,

being someone not admired.

The cuts on my wrists,

scream and beg for more,

but I know better,

than to be who I was before.

I am ashamed,

of the person I've become,

sick, frail,

worthless and dumb.

People look,

and people stare,

but they know better,

than to care.

I am alone,

and I am sick,

my worries and fears,

weigh me down like a brick.
