This Girl

by melody eyes   Oct 24, 2005


She awakens in the morning
With some yelling at the door
No good morning sweetie
No loving words at all

She packs her school lunch
Into her school bag
Walks down the street
Then has a morning fag

She walks to her friends house
about 20 minutes away
decides school ain't worth it
and wags half of the day

Her teachers think shes perfect
With her all great straight A's
They don't ever notice
Shes always in a daze

At lunch she stands there
trying to fit in
covering up her scared wrists
and all her midnight sins

She goes back to her mates house
Sits with her family
they all seems to sit there
watching TV happily

As she starts to walk home
She lets go a few tears
every step closer
brings only ever fear

She gets back to the hole
looks at the shoes and sys
Buts hers into the places
and thinks up some good lies

She steps into her bedroom
Falls to the ground and cries
Every tear that falls
Urges her to rise

Quick into the shower
Wash her tear streaked face
looking at her wrists
Thats covered with red line lace

Onto the bed she lays
Some scissors to her side
Wishing that last time
She might had died

Slowly cutting in wards
her tears start to dry
looking out her window
into the clear starry sky

She wipes away the blood
makes a promise to herself
Never again ill do this
next time I'm going for help

She never keeps that promise
for she cant control herself
Her scissors always remain there
blood stained upon the shelf

The day is at the end
as she goes to bed
she slowly lays done
resting her confused head

This girl always bears a smile
even tho shes still so sad
This girl always bears a smile
And pretends shes always glad

    Its to bad that many of us teenagers have to go through that now!!! I used to cut myself as well and i know that no matter how many times you tell youself your gonna stop those urges to cut yourself come back!!! i know that all that emotioal pain stored up inside isn't good, it just kills you everyday very slowly so soon its like you dont know who you are!!! I also try to be glad and happy but faking just hurts you more!!! But great poem, keep the great writing and NEVER give up!!! ~Michelle
