Countless hours of convincing

That you're not worthless

Because everyone else says you are

But Why?

Days and nights

As you start to believe them

Maybe you are worthless?

But Why?

Deep cuts and deep screams

Sounds begging to get out

But you push them in as you cut a little further

But Why?

Scars on your wrists

You hide them from the world

No one needs to know, they wouldn't care

But Why?

Tall tower, steep stairs

This is the right thing to do

You tell yourself as you walk up them, silently crying

But Why?

Throwing yourself into the night

You think no one will miss you

They didn't notice when you were alive

But Why?

Your body found the bottom of the tower

Screams escape your families lips

As they all whisper

But Why?
