I dont cut for attention
If i did i would show them
Have you ever seen my real scars?
...Nobody hasThe cuts on my arms are weak
The ones on my thighs,
Lets just say they hurt
But my ankles could dieThe burn marks
They werent an accident
The words i carved
They remain hiddenDo you wonder why
you have never seen my thighs
Well some things,
They remain unspokenThe day i show them
Is the day i die
But even then
I shall hideThe secrets in my head
The voices i hear
They scare me to death
But that doesn't matterYou can't hear them
So they don't bother you
Why would you care
About someone like meYou wouldn't know
the things they say
They kill me
They really tryTo be beautiful
Its impossible
To be skinny
You cant eatTo be perfect
you're too flawed
To be accepted
Give it upNobody needs you
Nobody likes you
Nobody will notice if you die
So why not commitOne cut
Two cut
Make it three
Maybe fourBut not one more
Otherwise
You'll be dead
On the floorBut wait
Thats what you want
so make your
Last final cutNobody cared right
Except your friends
Nobody loved you
But your siblings needed youNobody liked you
Except that one kid
Who can never tell you
He regrets it nowNobody noticed?
Lets correct that
Everybody noticed you
They just didn't knowThey didn't know
That you were depressed
Or that you wanted to die
But would they have cared?That answer is no
Nobody notices the signs
Before you're dead
But once you dieThey start to think
They start to wonder
Did they even know
Your name?Did they know you?
Did they know anything?
No because they didn't care to
They didn't want toSo now you're on the floor
You only took some pills
and cut your veins
But that was enoughYou can hear the ambulence
And your mother's screams
The paramedics know you're done for
But they won't say itThey rush you to the hospital
They bandage you up
And pump your stomach
Most hope you'll liveBut Your wish is to not wake up
The doctor looks at you
And says
"Your wish has come true"You whisper "Thank you"
As He shuts your eyes
And pulls a blanket over your head
He pronouced you deadYou finally did it
You're finally gone
No one can hurt you now
You're safeBut when the doctor
tells your mom and dad
You feel their hearts break
You were their first kidOn the ride home
Your mom blames herself
And your dad is broken
Can they really live without you?Your room isn't touched
Your name is unspoken
Your suicide left them dead
But they didn't forget youThey'll never forget you
