A Hidden Horror

Everyone has problems

Some may be worse and some not as bad

But when it comes to hurting yourself

All you feel is bad.....

Trying just to get away

Hiding myself from the world

Trying to make it all better

When I'm finally becoming up-whirled

Looking for an escape

Just thinking I should die

Telling my parents what they want to hear

Knowing that it's all a lie.....

I go upstairs and go through my drawer

Then finally pull it out

Cutting and cutting

Until I eventually feel worn-out

I hide it each day, every day I live

Just hoping no one will find out

I don't do it to die, I just do it to let go

And hoping someday I'll finally breakout

Breakout of my shell and finally reveal

A secret that has forever been sealed......
