Hold On Pain Ends

"I'm fine" she says while she's crying
On the outside she looks fine but inside she's dying
"It was the cat" she says when they look at her arm
No one knows it's her causing her harm
"I'm happy" she says forcing a smile
Hoping this pain won't last for a while
"Just a scratch" she says holding the blade
Watching as her skin soon starts to fade
"Red" she says watching her arms drain
Finally realizing her own pain
"Good bye" she says as she takes her last breath
Depression is sadly overlooked which ends in death.
