Fragile
Fighting back the tears
From holding back my fears
Not able to fend
My mind I must mend
The urges I have are made
By the long draw of a blade
Knowing this must stop
While I watch every drop
The need I have for affection
Makes it look like I want attention
But that is not the case
I want an understanding face
Feeling like I could break at any time
Just to stop all of the chaos in my mind
My thick outer shell is now worn
For everyone to see how I am torn
And yet I still have the need
To rip myself apart to bleed
