Sitting in a corner, looking for a helping hand.
My eyes scanning for a friend but I'm falling into quick sand.
Sharp words like daggers beneath my skin.
Much like the razor pressed to my wrist.
Nothing in this world can take words back.
Nor can anything in this world give back a life.

This piece is dedicated to a friend I lost to suicide due to bullying. I will not name them as I feel that would be disrespectful to them.
