caused effect

by Mary Frances Spencer

what is
this drama

message or plea
she has carved
pain on her own
skin

bleeding
loneliness

a teenage scream
drowning in
the deep
misunderstanding

Author's Note: Another teenager I know has been hospitalized. I find it sad and scary that they have to be protected from themselves. MFS

I have my own thoughts on this, but I'll share them privately. It is a sad trend.

Extremely insightful concerning a rather harsh topic. It is painful to watch these troubled souls self inflict. Nice write! --bf
