Tears

Tears fall on the page.
She is in a cage.
No one cares, no one dares.
She does not love.
She does not feel.
She is a shell, an empty shell.
She calls out to death for him to take her away.
End the pain.
End the rain.
The rain that falls from her eyes.
She cries.
For she is alone.
No one cares, no one dares.

Whispers

Voices in the dark of night. She tries not to cry, tries with all her might. Everyday 
certain memories flood her mind. Whispers. Whispers that are not so kind. Whispers 
that come from a quiet hall, whispers that make her fall. Down into a deep, dark 
hole. Where she gives her soul.

Temptation

Dark becomes light, day turns to night.
Poiesn.
Thoughts of death, thoughts of blood.
"COWARD! COWARD!" screams her helpless mind.
The pain frightens her so she doesnt want to die,
but as time passes by death crawls closer.
Tempting whispers fill her mind.

Lost

She screams in anger.
She is in danger.
Left totaly alone, she is now afraid of the unknown.
Death calls out to her 
Everyday she takes a step furthur.
She is angry, she is lost.
She gives up her mind, but with a cost.
A life to give,
A soul to free,
Death looks upon her with greed.

Unknown

I am unknown.
People see my smiling face and big, bright eyes. They wonder and watch, but do not 
see the sorrow that lies within me.
It is hard for a girl to see her friends move along when she falls behind. People 
don't understand how a girl who has seen a baby's first words and an old woman's 
last could wake up in the morning and fall asleep at night.
             She is alone, and I am unknown.
The secrets that I keep poisen the blood in my veins. Everyday a peice of me fades 
away and soon I shall no longer be. But still I wonder why the sky is blue, and still I 
dream that one day I shall have a name.
I cry when a heart is broken and shame the one who has brought pain. Life is long, 
tough, and unfair at times. But I hope one day to fully liveand be rid of my pain and 
sorrow. To be the girl people know me to be and finally to be called a name that 
does not bring pain.
Until that day I still remain.
              I am unknown.

Listion

She is told promises, but they do not keep.
She is told that she is loved, but she does not see.
She listions!
Others only hear.
She cries her silent tears.
No one cares that all she needs is a ear.

Trapped

She cries out in pain, feeling lost and trapped inside.
People don't know the thoughts that cross her overwhelmed mind.
Feeling so alone, yet wishing everone could dissapear.
Death crawls closer and closer.
It's tempting whispers promise peace
As her torn apart soul dissolves to thin air.

Bully

sticks and stones may breack my bones,
but words will never hurt me.
words sneack inside.
words creep inside
and make you loose your mind.
here's to those who took their lives because 
sticks and stones may breack their bones,
but words will never them.
And to those who sent the words to sneck inside,
sent the words to creep inside and made them loose their minds.
I hope you always see the innocent blood on your hands,
and never get a peace of mind.

Dawn

she awakes, but she does not move.
she feels dead.
she wishes she was dead.
slowly she drags on.
through the cycle of days.
as dawn to night, and night to dawn.
she is a shell.
an empty shell, moving through life.
waiting for death to take her.

Help

The sun rose shining bright,
The birds chirp in the morning light.
Her eyes wide open, but she lay unawake. 
The bloody knife lay beside her lifeless body.
She couldn't take the pain, she didn't understand.
Her brother's sudden death, her mother suddenly 
left.
The boy at school who made fun of her, the teacher who
said try and catch up.
She couldn't take the pain, she didn't understand.
This poor helpless soul felt no one cared, 
no one dared. How could have she known?
She could have lived,
If she had spoken one little word.
