Life Can Be Hard

Fly

In the middle of the hallway       

Standing all alone 

Was a girl with no soul

Who belonged to no one 

Stayed invisible 

People only went around her 

Not checking to see who she was 

Her heart broke silently 

Not even her best friend knew 

About the pain she went through 

Day by day and night by night 

I know that girl 

For that girl is me 

School is where I can't break 

Where I have to stay strong, smile

Wishing my aunt were here 

She was the one who knew me 

Understood me 

I feel weaker 

As the time passes by 

I don't even think this is a poem anymore 

This is like the story of my life 

Now everytime I write my hand trembles 

No one really cares 

They'll ask only to get an "okay" back 

The worst part is 

I know I have friends 

Some people who care

Yet I keep getting worse 

I'm not alone 

Others are suddenly falling 

Into this dark pitch black pool 

Call depression 

To those who know they haven't fallen 

Stay strong 

Cutting seems to be a trend 

Don't start for it's not worth it 

Not worth not being able to stop 

I'm gone so I'll keep writing 

It's my only escape 

to feel free

like I can fly 

Don't fall 

Keep your head high 

And fly
