Nobody knows
What happens when the sun sinks beneath the distant mountains
And the moon raises high above earth’s surface
That’s when it happens
She sits there all alone in her dark lonesome room
While her family is fast asleep thinking everything’s okay
Tears rushing down her face as if they were a raging river
The pain weighs her down like bricks on her shoulders
She stays awake crying
Hoping it will all end
That she’s going to awake from this nightmare she call life
She hides the pain behind fake smiles
Fake laughter
But the pain that she worked oh so very hard
And so very long to hide
Has began emerging
She’s scared to death of what’s going to happen
When people find out what’s going on with her
The scares are there to remind her
That she’s not as strong as she wishes to be
It’s her one weakness
When things get ruff
When the road gets bumpy
She picks up the blade
Telling herself
Just once more
One more cut
To release the stress,
Pain,
Hurt she feels inside
But it never ends that way
Escalating from small cuts
To deep wounds
She wonders if it’ll ever end
Knowing that a lot of people love her
It still doesn’t help
Something’s missing from her life
Something she can hold onto
If only she could tell everyone how she really feels
What’s really going on with her
Why she keeps to herself
Yet acting like she’s fine
And happy
Her plea for help grows stronger everyday
She hopes someone realizes before it’s too late
