You're The Reason

I was so comfortable
thought I could tell you
anything, but that one
day at your house
playing in the
slip-n-slide in my
swim suit. my cousins
were there, yet they
had no clue, when
we were playing hide-n-seek,
you grabbed me, threw
me on the bed
and did things
when I told you
no, a couple years
pass and the trust
is still gone, nothing
will ever be the
same, one day at
your house, you're
drunk off your
ass and you promise
me you won't touch
me again, yet two
weeks later your
teaching me how to drive
and you break your
promise, you're
the reason I'm not
comfortable around
guys, the reason
I'm scared of the
Dr's the reason
I don't trust
any other guys
the reason I can't
be myself anymore!
I blame you!!!
I was young and
didn't know any
better, yet you still
took advantage of
me, I just want
to know why, but
you won't tell me!!!!!!!!!

Everyday around quarter past three,
you burst into the bathroom searching for me,
I get hidden by your mother while you are away,
hidden, unused for most of the day,
I feel your anger as your hand grips me tight,
I'm the one & only thing that helps you sleep at night,
I live to put scars upon your wrist,
I leave my mark I'm proud of this,
I watch as the beautiful red blood pattern drips,
and runs off the ends of your fingertips,
what possesses humans to act like this,
to scream, cry & cut their wrists,
but for now my job is clear
the reason that I was brought here
to relieve the pain
to sit by the window and watch the rain,
up until around quarter past three
when you burst into the bathroom searching for me...
