oh hey look

there she is

there he is

look

look at their wrists

oh wait

I haven’t seen this

I haven’t seen their wrists

since

oh

wow

who know when

how long have they lived like this

how long have they found control in this

how long have these pains been expressed by this

and how long will it be till we notice

those who say those who show it

in their photos

are usually at the end

towards the better end

it’s the ones unseen

the arms in hoodies

those scare me

those pain me

tell me why

why

do you do this

tell me what

drove you to this

what makes it worth it

I think I know

but I may have no clue

just tell me what

what it is that make you do

do this saddening thing

you break what is made

for no reason but the pain
