A day of shame
February 7, 2011
My soul is dark
on my arm you'll find marks
they think they know
I'm pretty sure it doesn't show
the pain within
as I'm slitting through my skin
you see it dripping as I bleed
your eyes start to plead
as you watch, I know in your heart
I have planted a painful mark
but still you stare
I wonder how much more you can bear
I turn around your face goes red
you turn and walk away nothing is said
