You can tell something is wrong,
The trashcan says it all

You can tell there's blood flowing
Under bandages, they're hiding

You can tell there's a foul smell
That morning you left for school

I did not scrub my fingers well
Dry brown blood stuck inside nails

You can tell what I've done
Before I could erase the evidence

Will you confront, the things I have done to myself?

You can tell what I've done
I can tell you can tell what I've done
The way our eyes met, when you told me to come

You sensed what I've done
But I cannot tell you what I've done
I have to keep it a secret
Careful to not raise up my sleeve in the slightest

I can sense you'll feel guilty
Even though this isn't your fault

I can sense you feel you're responsible
But you are absolutely not

This is what I've done to my body
I can tell this will make you upset

This is what I've done,
I am the only one,
I harmed my own body
The responsibility does not belong to anybody
But me

This is what I've done
And I can tell, it's
a long hard fight to get through this one

I really liked reading this as it flows well and expresses the process of feeling as though you have to hide it.

You know where I am if you need me. :hug:

This is really good! I like the way it flows, and don't forget I am always here if you need to talk. :hug:

I agree with liking the flow!

I also agree with liking the flow. This is really well written. I love it!

I agree, I liked the flow as well. This was really good Susan, thank you for sharing.

I agree with people I love the flow. This was really good.
