I'm here

I bite my lip

Ready for you

to come and make it better

My arms are scarred

cold and wrapped around me

I scratched my name

etched it on my collarbone

I lie awake

Wakened and awaiting

I'm in the dark

Waiting for a candle

to light me to bed

I dig so deep

My nails break and tear

I'm waiting here

How is it that you can't hear?
