I'm Here

You get the last words of the fight
And you say, "I hate you, get out of my life!"
Then you go home and weep and cry
And you say to yourself, "I want to die"

You say you can't take it much more
Your cries for help, they just ignore
But I can hear them, clear as a bell
I will listen when you scream and yell

You're life could be better
I know that it could
But is the best way out
Really leaving for good?

You are frustrated always
I'm there for your bad days
We can go down to the beach
And talk the pain away

I don't know what you're going through
I don't know what you life's like
But I do know this much:
There's no need for a knife

You can talk, you can write
You can kick, you can scream
Bu please PLEASE don't
Make yourself bleed

I love you too much to lose you
I love you, I'll always love you <3

This is a poem written for the teens out there who are screaming for help, but no one will listen. Just know, that there ARE people who will listen, and we love you <3
