That's Why I Hurt Myself Today Poem by Mohammed Balchi

All of them i hide
i hide them all inside
i dont want you feel what i'm feeling
cause i know that there's no sign it's healing


My pain deep in its growing
but my pain i ain't showing
cause you're still hurting me
and after that you'll be the same, a copy

My tears i hid'em
my fears asid'em
none could feel
nothing could heal

a pain i grew with
of a slave i became
now there's no point
my pain had goin'

that's why i hurt my self today to see if i still feel
