If you were still here…
Would you notice something was wrong?
Could you tell by the way I smiled that something was amiss?
Would you look at my wrist in disgust?
Would you see what the others missed?
If you were still here.

If you were still here …
Would you hold me tight and say it will all be alright?
Would you hide the razor in a desperate attempt?
Would you make me talk to a stranger?
Would you tell me to stop and assume that I did?
If you were still here.

If you were still here
Would I stop?
Would I throw my friends away?
Would I want to?
Would I have a reason not to?
If you were still here


The author's comments:
I wrote this after reading a book about a young girl who cut.
I had this on here earlier and realized there was some mistakes so I reposted it.
