When I was younger, I had a friend named Harry.

I liked Harry, the way I shouldn't have liked him.

I told my dad.... That's when he hit me.

Sleep seems like a good thing right now.

I just want my mind to stop wandering.

Was it Niall I saved? I don't think I'll ever know.

"Abused... At home I'm abused," I told the cop.

He nodded and wrote some things down.

"When did it start?" He asked.

I looked at my scarred wrists.

"When I told my dad I was gay."

I hope the boy I saved is okay.

I hope he doesn't try to die again.

I pray that I don't die tonight.
