I Watch

I watch as every day you come home,

And cry.

I watch as every time you believe,

It is you.

I watch as you constantly try to

Be stronger.

But that isn't going to work.

It is never going to work.

We considered moving you,

But we know it will be the same.

We considered saying something,

But are afraid of disrupting the perfect shell

That you cocoon yourself in everyday.

So as you wash away the tears and frustration,

know this.

We have all felt it.

We have all done it.

We have all faced the consequences.

We have all seen it.

Close this chapter in your life and start a new,

For this year is a chance to start again.

Take it and use it,

For there are few chances like this in your life.

The strongest people are the ones that don't say anything.

But with strength comes toll,

And with toll comes weakness.

For I will no longer watch,

You cry.

For I will no longer watch,

You blame yourself.

For I will no longer watch,

You try to keep your head up in a constant current

That unlike you,

Won't get better.

A/N If you haven't figured it out yet, this is for my brother. So a message to those of you (If you are reading which I highly doubt) who are bullying him. Piss off.
