The note says, 'Goodbye, may you have a better life than I. And may
the world not turn its back on you as it did me.' She puts the note on
her bed and sits down. She stares at the scars ans slits on her wrists
as cold, silent tears hit the floor. She thinks to herself how she let
everyone down and how much she failed in life. She blames herself for
it all, for her friends abandoning her when she needed them the most,
for her parents getting a divorce, and for the cuts on her on her arms
and the tears stained on her face. She hates life and looks at it with
dark eyes. She looks back on the horible things life has brought her,
for her little brother's kidney transplant that he despretly needed but no
doner was found. And now she stares at an empty bed across the hall,
for her pain that haunts her and her eyes that are never dry, for all the
dissapointments and lies that were fed to her everyday like a three
course meal, and for her heart that has never been healed just broken
even more......She stands on the chair as more painful tears hit the
floor. The moon light shines through the window like a spot light for a
show. There is a chilling silence in the damp, cold, moon lit room,
as like a silloet her shadow swings back and forth, and one last tear
hits the ground......if only......if only someone would have took the time
to talk to her instead of passing her and turning your head in the
hallway. If only someone would have had a heart to care for another,
and for her feelings instead of making fun of how she dressed and how
she wasn't like the other kids. If only someone would have dried her
eyes and taken a look at her wrists, maybe then you can feel her
pain. If only someone wouldn't have given up on her but instead given
her a hug, or just sit down and talk to her about whats bothering her. If
only someone could have told her its going to be alright and push her
forward and never let her give up. If only she could have had an
example of hope and could have seen the beauty and goodness in
herself and life..........if only............................if only....
she gave up on herself. the only one that couldof helped her was herself. she didnt ask for help so no one gave it to her. people now-a-days exeptt others to just help them, but how can others help you whenever you havent acknowledged that you need help. i admit that i do it too. i exept people to just come and help me with stuff, but i need to ask them for help. people cant read minds, so why exept them too? great poem. thats why its always good to ask someone how they are. to show you care cuz if you show someone you care then they'll come to you when they need help. great poem. i hope all this stuff makes sence. lol. sorry if it doesnt.
