Tiffany Williams Poem
She stares into nothing,
Like when she looks in the mirror.
Not recognising what she’s seeing,
She used to see things clearer.
The clearness became distorted,
It became everything she feared.
And all that fear had left her haunted,
Wondering if it’ll ever disappear.
She wished the pain away because she didn’t feel she deserved it,
But now she feels emotionless, just wishing to reverse it.
Now she’d do anything to feel again the pain she felt inside,
Cause although it hurt for her to feel at least she felt alive.
So how does a girl just turn so numb?
Could it be from all the trauma that she’s suffered from?
She’s always healing parts of herself that other people break,
When all she’s ever wanted was to just feel loved and safe.
She’s lost so much; that there’s not much left to lose,
She even lost herself because she let herself be used.
She could sleep and sleep but she’d still wake up tired,
No amount of sleep will help a mind that’s never quiet.
She doesn’t want to hurt the ones around her that she loves,
But every day she feels as though she hates what life’s become.
She needs the ones she leaves behind to know she knew they cared,
That no matter how alone she felt,
She knew they were always there.
Even after she’d put them through hell,
They still picked her up every time she fell.
She’s grateful they stayed when she knew they could’ve ran,
She’s grateful they always tried and did the best they can.
She knows they’ll all be sad she’s gone,
But she hopes they’ll understand.
She’ll no longer feel lost and torn,
In a world where she felt so scared.

Tiffany Williams Poem
In the depths of my soul, I’m vibrant and alive,
But on the surface, I’m fragile and tired.
To keep my suffering hidden from view,
I smile and laugh, but it’s far from truth.
I dance around in my house and sing with the girls,
But inside, I'm haunted by unspoken words.
I long to be free from this silent pain,
And to let my true colours shine again.
I’m a flower in bloom, so bright and bold,
But I carry a burden that cannot be told.
I suffer in silence, my heart heavy with fear,
But I’ll rise above and I’ll persevere.
l’m not defined by my silent tears,
I’m a warrior, overcoming my fears.
I may be fragile, but I’m also strong,
And I have suffered in silence, for far too long.

Tiffany Williams Poem
When the day is over,
And the weight of the world is off your shoulders,
You can finally rest your soul.
But all you can think though,
Is why the weight of the world,
Rests on the shoulders of one girl.

Tiffany Williams Poem
I have no one to tell because no one is there,
Even if they were I’m too ashamed to share.
So although I want to scream and shout,
I’ll keep it to myself and I’ll just write it down.
Was my mouth moving but no words were coming out?
Or did you just ignore the “no” that came from my mouth?
Did I not say it enough?
Did I not say it loud?
Did it make you feel tough?
Does it make you feel proud?
Why did you force it when you could’ve went without?
No means no, it meant you weren’t allowed.
All I wanted was to be happy,
All I wanted was to be heard.
Why am I always made feel so crappy?
Is happiness something I just dont deserve?
I feel so betrayed but mostly humiliated,
Tried to wash away the feeling of being violated.
You took advantage of what you should’ve appreciated,
I paid the price and I f’ing hate it.
I was already healing from things I didn’t deserve,
So why did you need to strip me of the last of my self worth?
Just when I thought I couldn’t experience any more hurt,
You put me through a pain that hurt much worse.
