scars on my clear skin
i dont have scars
my skin is clear
from burn marks

i used to pray
that i have cancer
one day
and then people
would understand my pain

radition will explain my weakness
surgery my lack of faith
my family will have the resources they need
to process thier grief
to have meals
to be taken care of
they will be okay

and i promised myself to not use a razor or match
not to harm my skin
but sometimes i wish i did
becuase then people will understand

criss cross marks on her arm
she thinks too much
burn marks on her thigh
she is on drugs
she is high
she is not alright
she wants to die
