Being Me

by Unseen Exposure   Dec 21, 2004



Do you think I'm not human?
That my feelings don't exist?
Do you pretend that these scars
Just "appeared" on my wrist?

You think I did it for attention?
Because it's an "Un-God-like obsession?
Did you ever once think that
I do it because of depression?

Do you see these bloody scars?
These tormented, sad eyes?
Did you consider the fact that truth
Is behind all those lies?

Do you hide from me from fright?
Afraid of what you'd see?
That this broken girl is living
In a world of cruel humanity?

Does YOUR heart quench and break
Every night when you're alone?
Does YOUR mind drive you crazy
With these voices that scream and moan?

Do you know what it's like
To see the reflection that I see?
No, you could never know...
The only one who does
Is me.
