I Didn'T Want To Be There Poem by Rachel Brewer

I didn’t want to be there,
All alone with my thoughts,
Shouting inside my head,
Telling me to leave, knowing I can’t.

I didn’t want to be there,
Surrounded by noting,
In my version of hell,
Where I’m on my own.

I didn’t want to be there,
Quietly going mad inside,
Wanting to escape,
Run away, and never look back.

I didn’t want to be there,
Nothing to do, no one to help,
No one could hear my silent thoughts,
If they did, maybe they would have saved me.

Why didn’t they save me?
I don’t know what to think,
I desperately wanted out of this place,
For ever, but no one was there.

No one was there to hear me,
Hear me scream inside my head,
Scream for the painful silence to stop,
Scream, until the end.

I prayed for the end to come,
I wanted to be free from this place,
Just free,
Free from the pain.
