Her Best Friend

They stare at her Talk about her Laugh at the way she dress But how dare they When there in the same situation to? Her family stands in line to get something to eat She sits down way in the back to adviod meeting anybody They all wonder what shes there for She sits and stare off the world of the unknown "How could i be in this place again?" she thinks to herself She goes up to the room Cries herself to sleep Wishing darkness would come and put her at peace She awakes and finds darkness has come but Not in the form of death In the form of cutting again She made that first slit and it was like she felt good again She got so addicted she couldnt quit Started to cover up again No one really notice until he came He became her friend and at first she didnt trust him She wasnt going to tell him her truth But he promised he would always be true to her So she told him everything and from then on She made a promise to him,but most importanly to herself She promised to never cut again Got herself out of being homeless She is living great now at her aunts Although sometimes she gets the urge to start again She doesnt she just think of her best friend. . . *a month since i quit. . .very proud of myself. i was homeless until last week when i left and came to live with my auntie and her family. my mom and sisters and a brother still is but they will be out soon. i had to leave in order to succeed. . .*
