You, my friend

You’re a beautiful girl in so many ways
But awful lies and pain fill your days

You’ve stayed strong since the day you were born
But the people in your world have left you tattered and torn

You hit rock bottom and this ended with a slash
No one ever expected you to finally crash

You kept thinking bad thoughts
No one heard your silent cry
You oh so badly wanted to say goodbye.

I knew before you told me
I saw it in your eyes.
No one else would expect that your nights were filled with blood and long cries

But you decided to let people in
You no longer wanted to hurt yourself
To slice open your skin

No, things would never be the same
But you decided to dust yourself off and get back in the game

I hope to one day, go the same way as you
On the road to recovery
And make it all the way through.
