Of hypocritical,
Judgemental eyes
She has nowhere to go
So she writes
She writes
To relieve the pain
Of the scars from their careless words
The scars haunt the page
Individually, they appear
She writes about each scar
One by one
Reliving her past each time
Few people have read her work and are
Concerned for her
Most are nonchalant
Her end is near
And they don't even care
-Allison Gossage (2008)
