i feel so
empty.
but who knew feeling
this empty could cause
you to have
such a heavy heart.
everything's going right,
for once,
then it all crumbles.
at night
i fight the urge to scream.
and not a scream that's caused
by held back tears,
or hidden emotions.
i fight back a scream
that's due to the worst feeling.
the feeling of nothingness.

The teardrops were filling the room, and I did not care.
Let it overflow. Let it run down the stairs.
Let it drown everyone in the house.
If only they could feel my pain.

Little girl with the bright blue eyes, why do you cry?
Sitting on the floor looking at pills to ****
And razors that sting like tasers.
Little girl with the biggest smile,
why don’t you stop to think awhile?
Holding a withered daffodil, the tears spill.
Little girl with the freckled nose, what do you seek?
Standing now, she looks towards the sky.
"A Savior to give me the strength to survive.."

Her smile was the kindest;
Her eyes shone with joy.
She was so in control.
You'd feel like a fool
When you realized the truth:
Her fears and tears were unspoken.
Yet hid it so well; you'd never know
She was scarred and broken.
Her emotions were like a window;
Except the curtains were pulled closed.
