Lie

Too tired to wake up
I spent the day in bed
Friends called and asked "What are you doing?"
"Hiding from this world" I said

My eyes still swollen
They cuts slowly becoming scars
The bruises purple as grapes
It hurts to swallow

I'll go to school tomorrow and say I was sick
I'll hide those cuts on my face
Lie to everyone
And pretend nothing ever happened

Just pretend I was never there last night
My parents has a fight
I tell myself too just keep standing, trying to not fall
I couldn't keep it in
So I wrote a poem about it all
