I try so hard
Only to fail
I play my heart out
And no one listens
I'm weeping a river
But no one notices
I'm about to shatter
But no one helps
My lifeblood is flooding out
But no one will stem the flow
My life may come to its end
But no one will miss me
Say what you want;
It won't matter.
Even to try;
I'd dare not know.
Give your time;
At the spare of mine.
Couldn't have it;
But I shouldn't be.
Forgive the youth;
Dying amid smoke.
Should have known;
Forever is never.
Now do I digress;
With or without.
The choice isn't mine;
Alone I shall say.
Cease the thoughts;
They've eluded my person.
Another cut will do;
Please assure me so.
Pick me away;
As if I could not.
Never more this lives;
Despite it never was.
I'd assume you care;
For you chose.
Believe what's seen;
Therefore, i've no reason.
Despite every word;
Proof isn't here.
Of want and need;
The difference is clear.
It isn't necessary;
Yet I'd give it all.
However am I;
You must be as well.
Hit ten-fold;
This wasn't easy.
To really know;
Not sure you could.
Promise me not;
Just be true.
Happy as I am;
I still won't imagine.
Not that I can't;
Than again, I do.
Proceed with caution;
Your ice is thin.
Take your bow;
As if we care.
Scars may fade
And tears will dry
But that never
Makes them any less real
The memories remain
A part of our souls
It’s what made us
Helped us learn to grow
Not everyone can see
The scars we share
Or the things we have seen
The horrors we have lived
No one knows
How it feels inside
To be so empty
Yet always have to hide
The actions others do
That we can never over look
The choices they made
That killed us everyday
lilly
We aren't weak
We can be so much more
I can't show you how much you mean to me
I'm not giving up on you
I hope you don't give up on me
It's hard, I know
But the hurt will go away
I'm happy with you
So don't worry about a thing
I'm here for you
I know things are strange lately
But there's still a lot to keep hold of
Nothing will make me go away
I'm here to stay
So take my hand
Together we will show the world
Just how strong we are
A hug, a kiss
Makes everything alright
So hold me
And I promise
Nothing will hurt you again
she could count the stars
or blades of grass
but that cant make time pass
soon it will
but not as fast
as she wishes it would
he will be back
once the times past
every tattered photo
that covers her floor
reminds her of better times
when he was by her side
and the sun still shined
when tears and scars
didn't cover her heart
when she smiled
and it hid nothing at all
when the air
was filled with her giggles
and his laughter
when his safe arms
where always right there
the sun sets
on days they wish
had never ended
in the dark
no one can see
the scars
or trails of tears
that cover her
and a sunken face
masking the beauty
of one so strong
for no one ever
will be strong enough
to live unscarred
through the under-path
of lies and demons
cheerleaders and drugs
homework and love
