I am waiting
For the day
No one is home
And
I can raid the cupboards
And
Take long showers
And
Have the water run red
And have the pain
Burn so deep
So when the water
Turns clear again
All the pain
Will go away
And
I will feel better
But the scars
On my hips
On my legs
Where no one can see
Until I wear
My favorite shorts
And
Everyone sees them
And
No one comments
But everyone notices
Its unfortunate
But that's me
