this is about a friend of mine.

she hides from the world in all honesty
because these feelings scare her to death
she doesnt know what to do anymore
shes blinded by her own situation


she cries herself to sleep at night
she searches herself for solutions
she doesnt know what to do anymore
shes blinded by her own situation


she talks to you everyday
but you dont really listen
she doesnt know what to do anymore
shes blinded by her own situation


  her eyes plea for you to understand
  for you to see her as she is
  for you to just ask her how her day was
  and then wait to hear her answer

  you only hear what you want to hear
  you only look skin deep
  you dont really give a crap about her
  you only cause her pain

she doesnt know what to do anymore
shes blinded by her own situation


ugh it edited out the word i wanted to use so just use ur imagination

I think a lot of people are that way. Many are just waiting for someone to ask and also wait to listen to the answer. We can't always do that but it's not always because we don't really care. We're only human.

Aww this one is really sad!! It kind of reminds me of myself though..Was it written about you, or someone you know?  It's honestly very good though, and I'm gonna add it to my library.  Good work on this.

It seems like your friend is in a very hard situation right now.  Stay with her and be thr true friend that you are to her.  How can I tell that you are a true friend to her?  Well, the poem obviously show it   keep sharing

I agree with Happy Pretender... people are people.  You should understand this.  
Mice work on the poem though.

wonderful emotion in this, i like this piece a lot.  i especially liked your use of italics in this, it really made those lines stand out.  this is beautiful writing, i love reading your work.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.
