Cause and Affect

why do they let me bleed
help is what I need
i'm trapped in this darkness
I cut myself and feel the sharpness
why dont I feel loved
why dont I push when i'm shoved
why am I shy
i'm alone when I cry
why do I not fear suicide
i'm sad and alone on the inside
i'm trapped in the quick sand
no one will lend a hand
you cant sink my boat
it was never afloat
why do they try to hurt me
i'm already alone and tiny as a flea
why dont I trust any adult
I dont know but it involves assault
