Jennifer Cannon Poem
No one would care if I disappeared
No one would care if I wasn't here
No one sees the tears I cry
No one sees that I'm dying inside
I blend into the background
I don't stand out
Easily forgotten
Another face in the crowd
I matter to no one
No one thinks about me
I have made no difference
No one sees me
I don't want pity
I want to be loved
I want my life to have meaning
I feel so alone

Jennifer Cannon Poem
Unquiet mind, always overthinking
So much noise, I feel like I am sinking
Going down the rabbit hole once more
Been there many times before
Falling into darkness
An abyss of nothingness
Feeling broken, no one hears me crying
Feeling like my soul is slowly dying
Tired of trying to find happiness
It always seems just out of reach
With a smile on my face
I say I am ok
I pretend that all is well
All the while I'm in Hell

Jennifer Cannon Poem
I wish things could be different
Most Days I feel like I got nothing left
I try to be where I'm most needed
but I don't really know where that is
Days go by with no one to talk to
I feel like I'm drowning but no one hears me cry
I long for better days, in countless ways
but it feels like it's all just slipping away
My heart aches, damn near breaks
I'm bent but not quite broken
I wish that I could awaken
From this utter madness and crushing sadness
It seems like there's no end in sight to this loneliness inside
I don't know if I can make it
I'm going through the motions
Trying to find my way back to the light

Jennifer Cannon Poem
?Deep sadness, utter despair
trapped in a world that just doesn't care
hidden in the darkness
afraid of the light
stuck in the shadows
no hope in sight
do i want to be happy?
do i want to cry?
do i want to live?
do i want to die?
Not that simple
life never is
try to fit in
instead i stand out
feeling drained
the struggle is real
feel like i'm drowning
can't seem to heal
so lost
so confused
so lonely
so overwhelmed
scared and alone
misunderstood
looking for refuge
stuck in the dark
fear in my heart
the pain is real
emotions running high
stuck inside my mind
thoughts running wild
can't make sense of the chaos
just want peace and quiet

Jennifer Cannon Poem
Aching loneliness
Deep despair
I'm tired of fighting
I do not care
My heart beats
beneath my breast
a blackened void
inside my chest
I feel too much
I feel too little
I am weak
I am brittle
Pain, sadness, no joy at all
I want it to stop, to cease, to end
Heart is breaking, nothing left
As I stumble, down I fall
Too late to fix
No hope, no light
A lost cause, a troubled soul
I feel so out of control

Jennifer Cannon Poem
Little five year old boy
Just riding his bike
When a man came along
And cruelly ended his life
The boy was sweet
And gentle as can be
How could anyone take a life
With such Animosity?
He had his whole life ahead of him
And it was sadly cut short
His beautiful smile, his laugh
Are no more
I hope there is justice
For this poor little soul
Though now he's at peace
In the arms of the Lord
Rest in peace little angel
And though our hearts break
We know you're in Heaven
And out of harm's way
