A Cry for Help
Is it possible to feel so alone in a place
Full of hundreds of people?
The pain and hurt in my heart,
Are starting to leak through for everyone to see
And they're just watching me,
With their wide wide eyes
Waiting for ME to apologize,
For I'm letting my emotions out
Shouting, crying, miserable screams,
And they just stare
Showing me they couldn't see the injury in my eyes
But that wasn't enough for them to try and save me
Is there enough now?
Is my screaming and pitiful crying enough,
For you to open your eyes now?
With your blank stare,
You walk by.
I thought we were friends.

The author's comments:
This piece was inspired by a struggle I'm going through in my life. Sometimes, I scared to share my feelings with others. So, instead of talking to someone, I wrote this poem and let it all out.
