Take It

A smile,
Will mask your tears.
With pain flowing through you,
When is it okay to stop?
When is it too much?
When should I get help?
Blood running down my arms,
Covering my knife with red.
How could they not see,
That I'm falling apart?
Are they that blind?
Would they even care,
If I took it to my neck?
If I ended me forever,
Ended the pain for good?
I hold in my secrets,
With great care.
A terrible burden,
A horrible curse.
The looks I'd get if they knew...
I'd never live it down.
Take my life.
Take this broken heart,
This lost soul.
Take it all from me.
