I sit in the room
Cold and dark
I look in the mirror
*SMASH* My fist breaks the glass


I grab a sharp piece
I put it to my throat
STOP! I yell, dropping the glass
I grab my head and close my eyes


The sound and talking ceases
I look up at the door
I hear footsteps in the hall
I pick up the glass


I want to kill myself
There are demons underneath my skin
They torment me, tease me
They need to stop


I sit on the bed
My hands run through my hair
I close my eyes
I take a deep breath


They tell me to kill myself
They tell me I’m not worth the time
They tell me to go to them
They tell me they need me


NO!!!! I tell them to leave
I leave the room and never look back
