I Can Do This

Every night she lays in bed and crys,
All she wants is someone to hold her all through the night.
She sits there and wonders why life is so hard,
Why she has been delt this card in life.
Her family always blames her when things go wrong, 
She just wishes she could die.
She looks at the sharp knife in the kitchen,
Should I just end it now.
No one will miss me, no one cares.
She takes it to the bathroom ,
and takes it to her wrist.
She starts to cry, 
and drop to her knees.
Than she thinks I've made it this far,
I can do this.
