.

if someones self harming just to be noticed.

why would you shrug it off as attention seeking.

'oh they just do that for attention'

how could that enter your mind,

to ignore something as serious as a growing kid taking control of pain itself, and piercing their skin ,and watching a flow of colour, all by their own will,

cos of more than a feeling that grips them.

its something that we control, out of our control.

an issue that people label as 'emo' 'attention seeker' 'teen phase'

if it was only about attention, have you stopped to think why they would want or need that attention in the first place..

theyre not weak,

theyre not just little rebels

yes theyre teenagers.

but thats how it is

they have this potential, that is incredible, it is

they can really be something, someone

i know thats what i see
