Am i the only one??

you sit in your room
at the foot of your bed
praying for something better
only in your eyes emotion could be read.

your parents call you
from down the stairs
you hide your arms
and pray no one stares

you put on your mask
wipe away your tears
smile in the mirror
you have been lying for years

you sit at the table
sleeves all the way down
hiding your scars
you dont make a sound

eating only a little
you keep a smile on youre face
daddys little angel
mummys amazing grace.

you return to youre room
revealing youre arms
you promised youreself
"no more self harm.."
