The Secret Never Told Poem by Danie Shrum

See that razor?

That one that is stained?

It belonged to a girl who was troubled

Her eyes swollen

Her body shows her pain

All it ever took was her words

but she could never ask for help

In her eyes

All she saw was destruction

She thought no one would help

not her long lost friends who never knew

not her parents who never paid attention

not even God who she thought let her down

and not her love who tried so hard to keep her calm

she always trusted him

with everything she knew

As she looked in the mirror

all she ever saw

was someone who was weak looking in the mirror

her hot fresh tears rolling down her rosy cheeks

she knew it would only take one

she took that razor

the one that was stained

she put it to her vein

she knew

she felt it wasn't enough

she pushed

she pulled

her tears fell

that razor hit the floor

her blood running

her head spinning

the towel full of blood

she felt alone

On her bed she lyes

As her family cries

She never told

the secret she will forever hold

knowing she will die

lying there in tears

her swollen

her body shows her pain

All it ever took was her words

but she knew she couldnt tell

She will always will hold that razor to her vein
