Noticed Poem by Kelly Aragon

Completely unnoticed,
Her tears now fall,
From here face,
Onto the ground,

Nobody noticed,
As she faded away,
Her skin more transparent,
With each passing day,

Nobody knew,
That she was so sad,
Losing all the color,
That she had once had,

Nobody saw,
The slits on her wrists,
That she always hid,
With cheap bandages,

Nobody knew,
That she hid behind a smile,
Holding back her tears,
And pain all the while,

They never noticed,
The quiet girl,
Who sat in the back,
Away from the world,

One day the found,
Hanging by a rope,
And then the girl,
Was finally noticed.
