Our Escapes

We cut. 

We cry. 

We drink ourselves

close to death.

We pop pills.

We punch walls. 

We do anything to make

the pain visible. 

You can cover a cut with a bandage

But what can you do to help 

the mind? 

We're all damaged, 

Destroyed,

Broken. 

But all we're trying to do is see what's making us hurt.
