she sits alone,
and nobody sees,
the tears that fall,
unknown she wishes to be.
nobody understands,
or feels her pain,
nobody sees
the cuts along her veins.
she has no one to turn to,
no one who cares,
sure she has friends,
but they're never there.
the doctors say depression,
her father says grief,
but she looks down,
hiding her disbelief.
her baggy sweaters
show no truth,
her long sleeves,
cover her youth.
that girl is dying,
that girl is alone,
that girl is tired,
none of her pain is shown.
Poem About A Friend In Pain
I can really relate to this. I am an orphan (lost my parents at 3 months). Don't even have any memories of them. At times I feel so sad. I am a loner, and I sit in the dark at night and cry...
Grief
