AM BREAKING OUT

So long now,i awaited you to notice              
long sleeves don't fit my fashion and style.            
This running nose is not result of flu              
My phone is hooked and black is not the color of my eyes.            

Am done slicing wrist,hoping you hear silent scream for help     done buying piles of hankies,hoping you'll spot flooding tears. Done with disappearing acts,done crying myself to sleep         hoping you will see,feel my plea to be freed.            
             
          I am breaking out            
          I'll tell strangers too            
          maybe 1/10 will care enough.            
          Take me to the center            
          Hold my hand as i recount the horror            
          Stand with me after am all better.            
          Yes am saying it out loud            
          Am so very sad,am bleeding,suffocating,am hurting               I need help.
           
             
Scars, scars, scars everywhere,there is no else to cut           My spirit is dying,one more blow,i will not survive.            
Am tired of being needy,a victim and broken            
Hoping,praying,waiting while symptoms glare your blindness.              
             
          I am breaking out            
          I'll tell strangers too            
          maybe 1/10 will care enough.            
          Take me to the center            
          hold my hand as i recount the horror            
          stand with me after am all better.            
          Yes am saying it out loud            
          am so very sad,am bleeding,suffocating,am hurting              
          I need help.
           
             
Am breaking out!Oh yes am breaking out!am breaking out.am out!
