Who am I?
Am I the person
you see in the dark?
Am I the person
who you see at the back of the class,
too afraid to raise their hand
in fear of being judged?
Am I the person
missing school
more than the regular person?
Am I the person
wearing long sleeves and sweatpants
even in the middle of summer,
too afraid
to show off their body
because that's how much they
hate
themselves?
Am I the person
you always see at the hospital
and question why,
but too afraid to ask them why?
Am I the person
constantly
wishing they would die?
Who am I?
