This really kills me.
I had put on a band-aid for an insect bite on my arm.
A girl said, "What? Did you try to suicide and cut your hand?"
She joked. Others laughed. Even me. (Faked it.)
But they failed to notice the fear in my eyes. The cry in my heart.
Am I suicidal even when I have no thought of it?
Are people going to take this so lightly?
She has no clue how that one word affected me.
You have no idea how it would affect someone.
Please don't joke on it.
