The dark of night no longer meant rest

It meant restlessness

The cuts are deep

The scars being reopened

The tears are many

The sun shines through the beautiful trees

The birds sing

Morning again, and no sleep

Covering the mutilation

School came sort after

Though this was not a good thing

It only made all of this worse

Walking through the hushed whispers

About her sleeves

About her converse

About her clumsiness

All she asked for was a brake

Sitting alone at lunch was her retreat

People would show and try

Failing was common with them though

She never let anyone in

Though one day

This boy pushed past her negativity and denial

He looked at her and smiled

Her world flipped

He became her perfect

He was her perfect person, in the worst moment
