Don't

Don't run from me,
because you don't understand.
Don't put me down,
at the sight of my arms and hands.

Don't scream at me,
when you see the cuts.
Don't fear me,
because I'm what you don't know.

Don't judge me,
I do nothing for show.
I do nothing for you.
Only for me.

Just to get me through.
Just to feel me bleed.
Don't try to read into me
like you know which one's new.

Each tells a story.
A time in life that's low.
Gushing forth so freely,
Don't stop the blood flow

Everytime gets better.
Every cut takes it away.
The thoughts and things
that ruin every day.
Turn around; look the other way.
Do want your best at .....
