A Scar On My Left Wrist

I wanna be able to show everyone the scar on my left wrist Without being judged, or mocked or laughed upon I wanna be able to tell the story behind the scar To everyone who asks I wanna be able to tell everyone that my life Isn’t perfect That however much I may pretend I too am broken I don’t really care about the world But I wanna be able to tell you How I feel Without fearing That you too will leave I don’t think I will be able to hide the scar anymore For I no longer have any strength left I just wanna be me And sometimes I feel its too much to ask for I wanna be able to tell you How I cut my wrist With no gist Not using a blade But a soft graze And how much it hurt After the blood spurt I wanna tell you How I feel when I lose control And how much better you make me feel I just wanna be me A girl with a scar on her left wrist..
