She Wants To Help Poem by Diane Catherine Kordas

Sometimes when you fall,
You just want to stay down,
Because you know,
When you finally stand back up...
Someone will make you fall all over again.

When someone breaks you it seems easy,
Either way you end up with a giant scar.
The scars are inside of you...
They are also outside.

You are too afraid to admit,
Your sorrows so you have a smile,
That is not real.

You know the happy girl,
Everyone knows and loves?
Yea...Well she cries herself to sleep,
She has scars down her arm.

Yet she wishes not for happiness,
nor for it to end,
She wishes, no one to ever
Know her pain.

She cares more for the boys
That bully her everyday.
She knows you're sad,
She wants to help!

But you wont let her,
You watch her painfully go
Through life everyday.
