The body under the stairs
where no one can stare
where no one can glare
The body under the stairs
shaking, crying
desperate for a hug
or for anyone to realize that they aren't okay
but no one cares
no one even stares
when she emerges
a shattered, broken mess
the body no longer under the stairs
wishes someone would help
wishes they would stare
wished they cared
but the sooner she sees how cruel this world really is
will it push her off the edge?

- Comment from author about the poem: So I wrote this about a week ago during an episode. I'm doing much better right now just in case anyone was wondering :). An arrest has been made in a case agaist my abusers and there are three more arrests to be happening. Wish me luck as these next few weeks are going to be rough but I will not break
