the reason teens are so depressed
isn't because we're too sensitive
or there's too much pressure on us
from school, family or the mediabut because we aren't willing to help ourselves
we've become used to the sadness
the anxiety, the lies, the starvation
and we are somehow comforted
by the blade on our skin
or an empty stomachit has become such a routine
that at the end of the day
full of pain, heartache and suffering
we are relieved when our skin
is met with a blade
