Guilt

Pain

Why friend

asked me

Why I am

sad.

I could have told her

My neighbors cat died,

Or that

I am just tired

I could

have said

That I did bad on a test.

But,

Those are all

Lies.

Because really

I

Am not

Okay.

I am in

Pain,

Pain that stay,

Forever.

Friends that self harm

It hurts me

Again

And

Again

And

Again

They cut,

And they

Scratch,

But laughter

D

R

O

W

N

S

Them out.

So, I tell her

I am fine.
