A Sad Tale From A Friend

They found me crying at the steps
They didn't know what was wrong
I had disgraced them in many ways
Ways I hid all along

The tears weren't pain enough
So I showed them my arm
They didn't know I was so distressed
They didn't know I was in harm

I went to counseling for months
It didn't help to talk or write
They were worried for me
They had to do something that night

They took me on a drive
To where, I didn't know yet
I'd never been there before
But I'll never ever forget

There were people like me
Who cut because they didn't feel
They thought they needed to
Because emotions are also real

I felt so blessed to have
Such loving parents to guide me to help
Because if it hadn't been for them
I wouldn't have helped myself

*based around one of my friend's stories she told me...God bless you, hun! i luv ya like a sister*
