Poems of Me

Slits

14/9/13

You tell me you're fine

But you're sick of trying

You stand on the bridge, ready to fall

Nobody notices, you're not there at all

You tried to be happy

You tried to be smart

You tried to be fine

But you ended with a broken heart

The newspapers print

That a young girl had died

It says nothing about you trying

Nothing about you at all

No one to care

No one to mourn

Nothing about the broken family

Nothing about the cheating and hurt

Not about your friends

And how they're at breaking point

You tried, you really did

To be happy

To be smart

To be fine

To be perfect

But you ended with a broken heart
