My Demons

Blood drips down my face

As your hand hits me

Sad smiles fill their faces

A kick to the leg

A punch to my gut

Everyday at the same time

My books are scattered about

Blood on the floor

My head slammed against a locker

Why do they do this?

Why me?

The quiet, shy girl

Alone with her own demons to handle

A slap to my bruised cheek

Laughter fills the air

I cough up more blood but nobody cares

At home, alone

My wrists start to burn

And the voices come back

The glint of steel looks so real

Cuts along my wrist bleed out

A sad smile on my face

A bruise still on my cheel

I wonder how I'll look in my casket
