What about my tears?
Did you not notice them as they yelled for help while leaving my eyes?
What about those scars on my wrist?
Do you not see I just want to be told that I'm here and I can be seen, that I too belong?

he would surely kill me.
Yea I'm okay, what about the bags under my eyes?
I have just been too depressed to eat, sleep, and even get out of bed. Quite sad.
What about my life?

Yeah I'm depressed...
