To Write Love On Her Arms

The shouting and yelling never ceases
alone in her room, she falls to pieces
The tears run down, she is breaking
feeling inside, her heart is aching

She wants to end it all and move on
who would notice if she were gone?
She goes to the cupboard to find what she needs
to commit this unforgivable, lifesaving deed

But her hands fall on something new
a leaflet she had and never knew
She stops and reads for a little while
reading the story, she has to smile

There and then, she knows there is hope
she will find another way to cope
She will not cause herself anymore harm
instead she sits and writes 'Love' on her arms
