Me
A happy smile
A happy mind
Nothing is wrong
The world is fine
My heart is perfect
There are no cracks in sight
Just a gleaming and shining grin
Who can imagine what's in my mind
A small laugh escapes my lips
Which were trembling with tears moments ago
My eyes seem fine
After washing my puffy face at least 5 times
No one can possibly think
Im anything but okay
I sob to myself at night
I sob to myself in the bathroom
How can i explain
If someone finds me in that state
Its too hard to believe
That there might be a happy day
When the lights will be bright
No tears to be shed
Just laughter and smiles
No thunder or storm
Still i fight
Because i am a warrior
And a warrior fights on
Its ok with all the tears and cries
Its ok if i talk to myself all night
I will get through just alright
No matter what anyone says
Im perfect just this way
This is me
So hear me roar
So if you have a problem
Come and fight me
I might break down
I might cry out
But do you care
Do you want to help me
Im sorry for everything
Im sorry for hurting you
Just dont be mean
How much more
I cant take it any longer
You call me weak
But thats not me
Im a warrior
I fight back
Until its too late
My mind is gone
You broke something in me
My heart
My mind
My soul
Me

I am a 13-year old girl and I wrote this poem when I was going through some dark times...I really hope this shows others out there that you aren't alone.
