Hey guys, just before I start my poem I want to let you know I'm starting a series. In this one there will be three or four poems about different things with a different song attached. They will all be under the same title. And might do a second series as well I'm still thinking about it but I came up with this idea yesterday because it is something that I feel strongly about. You know what I mean after you finish reading.
To mum and dad, all those times when you dismissed my tears as me just being a hormonal teenage girl, there really was something wrong. You failed to realise that your little girl was deeply depressed..
Dear twin sister all those times that U refused to hang out with me and I would shut myself away in my room, you never knew that I was secretly cutting and i'd been doing it for months...
Dearest best friend, when I became quiet and withdrawn you acted as if it were nothing. You took no notice that your friend your closest friend for the past 12 years, was seeping into a dark depression and needed support from her friends and family/
Dear crush Who claims to pay attention to me all the time, you didn't even notice the signs. You never noticed That I became less talkative. You never noticed that I lost weight. You never even noticed that I stopped wearing shorts, which is something that you said you love about me, because you said I looked beautiful in them.
No this is for all of you.
Never mind about trying to undo those things, what's done is done. You can't repair the past, i'm gone.
I've slit my wrists and tied the ropes and even taken a few pills.
This is just to say, never ignore mental health. If someone seems like they might be struggling with mental health, get help. Suicide numbers are rising...
