Her sleeves came up,
Her wrist displayed,
She added some bracelets,
To hide the slits,
I took off mine,
With little shame,
The secrets she’s hiding,
I know the pain.
It’s been three years,
I smile with pride,
I’ll show you a new way,
To deal with life.
I hope it works,
She smiles back too,
I try to quit,
It won’t let me.
You were alone,
And now you’re not,
Together we are stronger,
And twice the force.
And when the waves,
Come crashing now,
I’ll be your anchor,
To pull you up.
