Lost Childhood

by -Ѕнэ đιεđ ѕсѓεάміηĝ-   Jun 7, 2006


Why did you not notice
Her teddy was an unusual shade of red
Or that her thoughts of death
Were stuffing up her head

Her childhood she had lost
And she never got it back
The thing she craved the most was love
The one thing she did lack

The innocence of childhood
Was replaced with thoughts of death
She always cried herself to sleep each night
Praying for her last breath

But what other people will never know is
The cuts go deeper than the skin
They come from inside her broken heart
From the pain from so deep within

This girl was deeply depressed
She cut to ease the pain
She always hid her emotions
But was going so quietly insane

One night she cut too deeply
The blood didn't stop to pause
So close to the end, the girl wrote a note
Trying to explain the cause

This is what she wrote to the family
Who caused her so much pain
Who only ever held her back
Who caused her so much shame

I'm writing to my family
Asking why they didn't dare
To question all the cuts of mine
And why they never really cared

*please Vote or comment, it really means alot to me, and i will ALWAYS comment back*

    "The innocence of childhood
    Was replaced with thoughts of death
    She always cried herself to sleep each night
    Praying for her last breath"

    my fav. part. but i think you should change "She always cried herself to sleep each night" to "She always cried herself to sleep". i dunno. i think it flows much better, but hey, dont listen to me. 5/5 on my part chica!

    My Fav stanza :

    ' The innocence of childhood
    Was replaced with thoughts of death
    She always cried herself to sleep each night
    Praying for her last breath '

    Thats another nice one! i lved the ending it flowed very well!

    the poem was filled with sadness and depressed, and yet sometimes parents notice the things that happen but still dont take action in it!

    keep it up!
