“I’m Still A Person”

I’m still a person.

I have a soul.

But people forget that

Their words are cold.

I block out their attacks.

Everyday, I do.

Sometimes I can avoid them.

And I hope I can too.

Other days, it’s not enough.

I just want to get rid of this pain.

And it frightens me when

I think a sharpen blade

Is the way.

It feels fuzzy, and nice

While tears escape.

It give me relief.

And I go do it every day.

I know I worry others.

Or maybe just my parents.

They want to help fix it all.

But can i truly mend all this?

I forgot how this happened,

To tell you the truth.

Whether I called bad on someone,

Or somebody did an evil bloop.

But of course, I can try and forgive them.

I just want to know why.

Why was was it me?

Why all of the lies?

All I can do now

Is try not to give in.

Even if I really want to.

This is sink or swim.

And if anyone is out there.

Who knows I’m here.

Please, get help.

I didn’t do anything!

And I don’t wanna die!

I swear!
