She is not sick
She cannot be sick
She doesn’t fit the signs
She exercises too much to be___.
SHE IS NOT SICK
You’re just being dramatic
Stop whining
You’re too fat to be___.
Just shut up
She is fine
You are not okay
You don’t seem like yourself
You’ve been acting odd
You are a good actor
But I can see through your disguise
You cannot hide bullet-holes with makeup
YOU ARE NOT OKAY
She’s not doing well
Please listen to me
She’s going to get hurt
Why won’t anyone listen
She’s hurting
I HAVE BEEN CALLING OUT I HAVE NOT STAYED SILENT DO NOT SAY THAT I WAS
I HAVE TRIED TO ASK FOR HELP
I HAVE DONE ALL THAT I CAN
my voice no longer makes a sound
i am beginning to fade
and i can see that
i’ve seen the statistics
i know this does more harm than good
but i don’t know what to do
my words are now blank
she is lost.
My vision blurs
My heart stops
My scars tear open
My blood flows freely
My eyes pour waterfalls
A cleansing flood
My mouth opens
A shared secret
I can see something
Is this the light I have waited for?
She was found
She can breathe again
She can move and dance around
She sings freely and without pain
She can speak
She has lived to see__the words escape the silence__.
She will not fade
And now here I am
And now I am enough
And now I am okay
And now I will live
It’s good to be alive
She can heal
