【 THEY DON'T KNOW 】
【 ALTERATIVELY CALLED: BEEN THROUGH ALOT 】A broken heart, a burnt cigaret
Tears flowing through, so many things they regret
A small girl staring, confused
They scream, she flinches
They yell, she moves by inches
She's weird, that's what they say
She's quiet, that's what they say
They don't know
They don't know at all
What hides behind her smiles
As she goes through these trials
A small girl fighting hard
Her life is a playing card
She has these people
She calls them friends
Hidden gems
Everyone goes through so much
They don't have time to clutch
Ahold of others, they are terrified
Their eyes open wide
Their minds condemned
They try to blend
We need to learn to pay attention
Pay attention to their cries
To know when they disguise
Their eyes tell their stories
To know when to take care of their worries
She's weird, that's what they say
She's quiet, that's what they say
They don't know
They don't know at all
What hides behind her smiles
As she goes through these trials
They don't know what we go through
As the time passes us by
They remember us in minds eye
But don't know when to stop and say
“Are you okay?”
Some things remembered, some forgot
Some memories happy, some distraught
Some slip away, most do not
We've been through a lot.

like my last poem, I wrote this in seventh grade for an assignment. I just remembered this existed earlier today, and I'm very very proud of it. I hope you enjoyed it.
