I stay up way way way too late at night
trembling and crying and trying to hide.
  When I finally collapse into bed
I am overwhelmed with fear
I surround myself with 9 pillows
And try to fall into sleep.
But it is too much.
I cannot hide.
My body aches from the fear
and the night sends a shiver
through my curled up body

There are whispers in the room.....
These are the whispers that  I cannot escape:
"You are worthless."
"You are a failure."
"Nobody cares about you."
"It was your fault."
"You wanted him to do it."
"Nobody believes in you."
"Just give up now...it will be easier for everyone."
"You will never be good enough."
