It's sad when you can tell,
that a person is holding back tears
and longing for them not to show.
It's so hard not to notice a person in trouble,
even though they often fight so hard.
The purple below sunken eyes,
showing the dreams that had been pulled from their grasp.
cold trembling hands,
resembling how they once held on too tight.
deteriorating bodies,
yet buzzing thoughts,
somehow keeping them alive.
skin a soft grey,
hair a tousled mess showing how much they have become untamed.
unsatisfied people,
who hold on despite there not being much
