You never ate.
You just sat there with your drink.
Often it was iced tea.
Peach was your favourite.
But you never ate.
And your arms were quite skinny.
And red scars.
New scares.
White scares.
Old scares.
And it hurted me to see
How you hurted yourself
And I ask
"Is it for the pain? Or does it numb you?"
But I did not ask why you did it
And you looked at me
With a hint in your eyes
Like you thought it was funny
And you talked
Said one word
"Both"
And all I did was nodding
I did not really understand
But I tried
And that was better
Than not trying
Right?
