Sitting here shaking (FEB 05)

Sitting here shaking in the silence
then shout echoes through
my parents are arguing once more
i curl up in a ball and try to block out the sound

Sitting here shaking as they shout
Trying to find a way to make it stop
I pick up a tool
blade, scissors, whatever i can find
I cut once, twice, more more
Then the shouts die out but my blood continues to flow
It's over now but the scars remain for good!!!

I cut whenever my parents shout!!
