Been There Before

by bridget-rose

You can have all the friends in the world but still feel lonely You can own the biggest house in the world but it won't feel homely That feeling of not belonging can ruin a situation A memory will then turn into more of a complication The one person you want to talk to is gone You are used to being used you feel like a pawn When someone is sincere you can't open up So you take all your feelings and hide them in a cup Then suddenly everything is falling down You can no longer hide your frown The cup overflows along with your emotions You are swimming in a tearful ocean You start thinking, stop talking bad thoughts fill your mind Remember everyone they’ve been so kind But your family is nothing but broken and sad The things kids say at school are starting to make you mad Depression has taken all of it you want to stop trying But soon enough you'll be on top of the world flying This is not much of a poem; it's more of a letter From someone who has been there before it gets better
