A candle is lit but wishes to die.
memories are made but will later make you cry.
she's 17 and jaded,
no one really cares.
too many shadows have passed her by,
too many to bare.
There's a bright light for guidance she can't see.
misery is all to be known
and now she's just a reflection of me.
heart reak hotel
that's were she's been living her whole life.
until all seconds disappear
she will stand guarded with her knife.
a lipstick smile to hide her from her pain
twenty hits of acid the law calls her legally insane.
she started a fire she never knew how to light
she's seen so much pain she's given up her sight.
she's looking for you, can you see her now?
I can tell you want to help her but you'll never
know how
Poem About Covering Up the Pain
This poem sums up everything I feel. I'm 17 and in terrible heart ache. I suffer from chronic depression and many other mental illnesses. Everyone makes fun of me that I'm crazy. The sad part...
