To the sunsets of another day
To all the hurt and lies
There’s nothing like the hurt
That glistens from her eyes

You see they never asked alot from her
And neither had her mum
But how can she forget it all
When the hurting’s never done

The scars have formed, her life has changed
Not for better but for worse
They tore her heart out skilfully
And left her drowning in this curse

She stares out at the mirror
Arm stretched out in the air
But broken eyes of hatred
Stare back in despair

And as the smell of burning flesh
Fills the atmosphere
The tears dry upon her face
As she falls down in fear

There’s no bravery in her eyes
She’s not as strong as she used to be
She can’t fight the urges
And her pain is killing me

She doesn’t believe in miracles
And she doesn’t want our help
So how do we fix the broken
Before you go and kill yourself?
____________________________

So if you’re out there reading this
We’re not giving up on you
You’re not the person you used to be
But we can fix that too

There’s no bravery in your eyes
The glass lays broken on the floor
I hold a tissue to your cut
“Why don’t you fall on me some more?”

Thanx.. both of you.
This is a really great poem and it made me cry some more.. but that's okay.  
Did you know that if you don't cry, the salt from your tears kept inside will poison you.. yeah, just a random fact seeing as I don't know what to say..
You guys are truly awesome, and you two as well, Zach and Em, if you're reading this.
Just.. thank you..

So cut me into pieces and tape me into something beautiful...
