No one seemed to notice the lines,

The lines that appeared on my wrists,

My thighs.

The way I cut my skin open,

Like I cut calories.

The way the lines went vertical,

And not diagonal.

They didn't even notice,

The diagonal ones.

No one seems to notice,

How deep into my struggle,

I really am.

I like it that way,

No sense of responsibility needed,

If I go to far.

No one to check me,

If I go too deep.

If I cut too many lines,

If I cut out me.

No one would notice.

Sadly that's just the way,

Things just have to be.
