As moitionless tears streamed down her
face, she never even noticed. Everyone knew
she suffered for everyone saw her cry. They
saw the marks upon her arms. The blood
smeared down her wrist. They gave her dirty
looks, scornful, demeaning eyes. When those
few asked her ?why?, she simply told them
lies. Some say she wanted attention some
say did it out of fear others say they
didn't care. that day she cut too deep,
she died
She never did it for love and attention.
She cut just to know that she was still
alive.
