Under Her Wristband

by ¤|Æ’lοяεηζîά|¤   May 18, 2005


She’s the one so well liked,
The girl you envy,
Good grades, and a pretty face,
The girl you always wanted to be.

But under her wristband,
Are scars and scars,
Where her true stories lie,
The ones hidden in a jar.

This line tells how suicidal thoughts lingered,
All her sanity got chased out,
Her sleeves were soaked,
But the blood didn't take out the self-doubt.

Her mother hits and yells,
Whenever she did something wrong,
She’ll throw things at her,
And make her feel like she doesn't belong.

Her dad doesn't do anything,
He pays no attention to this poor girl,
I wonder if he even knows she exists,
In this unfair, cruel world.

She would lock herself in the closet,
Her favorite place on earth.
As tears fall and land on her blade,
She gets ready for her rebirth.

She drew a picture of a rose,
And filled it in with crimson red,
This little picture on her wrist,
Spoke for her, all the things unsaid.

Next time, she thought, maybe I’ll try harder,
So it’ll dig deeper, my friendly blade.
As red tears pour out,
My problems will fade….
