Please Don't Judge the Dark (Free-form Poems)

Stars in the Sky

You tried so hard

They didn't understand the fear.

You cried and they laughed.

They did not see the pain.

You scared those arms

and they did not care.

But I understood.

I saw.

And, sweetie, I really did care.

But I came in that day

To find out you were gone.

You never came back. 

Others said you were seeking attention.

Some said you were too pretty.

I said that it was them.

All of those words,

They broke my beautiful swan.

They turned you into an angel.

But they took you away from me.

When I was not ready to see you fly.

I understood,

I saw, 

And, I really did care.

The Desk you sat in is cold

While mine is still warm.

How is it fair

That the sweet and innocent

Get turned into

Stars in the Sky?

*Don't become a star too soon. You are still needed. People understand your pain. They see your tears, and the really do care about what you do to yourself. You are too beautiful to die. So don't listen to them. I Understand, I see, and I care. I care about all of you, sweethearts.
