Hard Goodbyes


Why am I so scared?

My heart has been raw and bared!

My wrist and arm show the scars

And this might be above the bars.

There are so many people in my life

But, I think I need to end with a knife.

I know that help is around

But there is this depressing sound.

I am so scared to leave this way

Is there anybody out there to tell me, "It will be okay."
