What They Will Say

I want to kill myself.
It's simple as that.
...But i'm not brave.
and i'm afraid.

Not of pain,
nor of dieing.
no...
I'm afraid
of what people will say.

I used to cut my wrists.
But not anymore.
Because they started
to notice my scars...
and i was afraid.

Not of the risks
or that i'd get caught.
no...
I was afraid
of what people would say.

I wish to run
run far from here.
but..i can't...
because i'm not brave,
and i'm afraid.

Not about where to go
nor how to survive.
no...
I'm afraid
of what people will say...

I do not know why i fear this
of all things...
I'm just so afraid...
of what they will say.
