I haven't written in a while.. sooo.. i hope its not too scarry.


a scared child hides within
feeling all of her fears at once
tears begin to fill her eyes
inside another part of her dies.

she begins to drowned in an endless sea of sorrow
asking only one question:why?
why did he hurt me the way he did?
looking at the sun, she plunges into the deep
one last time she says goodbye.

Scary,  no...not at all.  A little sad and
not sure I liked the ending...seems someone
was taking their life...

Why,  asking why?  Gosh,  we all have done
that.  Sometimes it is best just to say,
"It wasn't my fault"  

Lots of power in this poem....Don't feel
afraid to write that...It is perfectly OK.

Very sad yes, but also very well written. Cheer up! Don't let the "he's" in this world get you down, there are too many of them.

Never let "him" take you down, for the sun and the heavens are always within your grasp. Sad piece of writing, but I hope it helped purge you of some pain. Keep writing Cassers
