“I am a poet writing of my pain
I am a person living my life in shame
I am a daughter hiding my depression
I am a student who doesn’t have a clue
I am a bestfriend hoping you’ll be there
I am a wisher wishing this life weren’t mine
I am your friend acting like I’m fine
I am a sister making a good impression
I am a girl sitting next to you
I am a teenager pushing my tears aside
I am the one asking you to careâ€
I am all of these
Wishing with all of my might
To be something other than a tragedy
Or just another lost girl in another nameless city
In a useless uncaring world
I am so much more than just another depressed lonely girl
So much more…
Writing my heart away
In the midnight hour
Of my sanest and most soul baring thoughts
I let myself be discovered and explored
Sitting upon purple and red blankets
Holding my panda
And letting my tears flow
From deep within
Letting the past; one I have never really been really able to write about
Write itself upon these pages
I am so much more than what people seem to see…
So much more…
If only everyone could see me as you do....
Maybe than my perspective
On life would be different
But for tonight I will be writing of my reality…
One only you and I know of…
One of trust, love, happiness and understanding
