I wish someone would look at me
and notice the bloodshot
eyes by the tears that fall at night
I wish someone would look at me
and realize the bruises on my thighs
I wish someone would look at me
and sympathize on how pale I've become
I wish someone would look at me
and see that I'm so numb
I wish someone would just look at me
that would say everything I need
so I wouldn't bleed.
