April's Scars

i get home at night
and get my kid to bed
wanna call him up
just to hear his voice again
so i cut myself instead

it's hard
so goddamn hard
trying to get it all done
i use a knife
sweet shiny knife
because i don't have a gun

the office woman hate me
talk shit they don't know
i do their work for them
and smile when i'm done

the bills are piling up
in fact they are choking me
i don't want my baby to go
i don't do it for the blood
but the pain to flow

I'm sorry to hear this. I hope May was much better for you. There are people out there who will help you cope, please just ask. Come have coffee. Ronda

Ronda, I did not cut my self last month or any month. April is a girl I know and that was from a conversation we had when she needed to talk. She is ok and getting better. I'll stop by your work before mine next Tuesday for tea.
