The cutting revealed...

by Christina Gomes   Apr 14, 2005


Things were going fine
Working out this way
No one suspected anything
Until that one dreadful day

We were in art class
So I rolled up my sleeves
Not realizing what was there
My consequences I received

A scar you could see
So I made up a lie
Saying a cat scratched me
I felt like I was going to die

The whole class was silent
But I quickly went through the door
Tears started streaming out
I couldn't take it anymore

I was crying all alone
Because everyone now knew
My secret fell out
There was nothing I could do

I heard all the rumors
My life was falling apart
They all said something
Tearing up my heart

I heard a few people
Saying that it couldn't be true
I was such a happy person
Good was what I went through

Other people made up such lies
Making it seem so much more worse
And people believing it
My life was going through such a horrible course

I couldn't take it at all
It was just way too much
I lost everything
And everyone's touch

I was just left crying
Because of a secret revealed
Because of how I coped with life
Things are never going to be healed...

*.-.|Please rate and comment, it would mean so much to me...because if you went trhough this, you know what it feels like. This happened to my friend. And I would appreciate it if I could hear what you guys think|.-.*
