when i was born
you saw me as precious
you saw a bright future in my eyes
art at my fingertips
but that bright future
was not so bright
future me is disappointing
isn't she?
she's not your pretty little girl anymore
she's never felt loved
and she's always felt alone
and instead of smiling up at you
with wide eyes
like that child would have
she looks down at her toes
her body scarred and self-abused
and asks "can you help me?"
