What do you think this poem is about?

they say they're hear to listen

i have a friend who tells me things
and writes them on my door
i have a friend who tells me things
somtimes i wish she'd speak no more
i have a friend who tells me things
about the monsters inside her head
i have a friend who tells me things
about the times she's wished she was dead
i have lots of friends
no shes not not the only one
they tell me things
and write me things
and they are never really done
i have alot of friends- alot of talk machiens
they want me to just sit their and watch them blow off steam
they hope im not listening especially when they shout
they tell me lots of things but im not sure what they're about
my friends they ask me to hear their things and and tell me not to repeat them
not about how thier mommy died or how their father used to beat them
i have a lot of friends but most of them are crazy
they tell me things that break my heart and think that they just graze me.
