Hearts Cry Out

Scars

Scrapes

Cuts...

Each one new, different, unique

Holding a heart-wrenching story

Each one different but strangely the same

All hold pain

Gut-wrenching and heart breaking

Broken home

Alchoholic or abusive parents...maybe both

A cutter

A weirdo and outcast

A lesbian...

Disgraced because of who she loves

People call each one of them

Wrong

And Beat each of them down.

Depression...

Creeping over

A felling of belonging

Erased from your existence

Always persecuted

For what you say

What you think

What you beileve

What you stand up for

So depression

Paranoia

And a feeling of wrongdoing

Overtakes you

What's the point to carry on

If no one else cares

Why should you?

Why not give up the life

God granted?

Maybe you can finally be with Him?

But maybe you won't?

Everyone has already said your going to Hell

But that's not true

But still don't take your life.

Bear through the pain

Smile through the tears

Think of one bad thing and 100 good

You have so much to live for

Don't throw away life

Because people who one day won't matter

Persecuted you

So to all the hearts that cry out

Remember someone out there heard your cry

And will soon be there for you
