Our Story
Our story always ends the same
No matter how many pages I turn
In the end
I’m the friend in need
And you’re the main character, always having to help me
I try to rip the pages out

A Collection of Short Poems
I Miss The Old You
When we first met
I had no idea
You would become so important to me
But I’m starting to wish
We never met
Now I’m forced to remember you

Poem #301:
there’s this gaping hole
in my heart
yet they never noticed i was

I'm so sorry that you had that experience. It must have been awful and neither you nor your friend deserved to go through that. The poem is great and sends a powerful message, there aren't many about this topic so I love the honesty and imagery you used.
Thank you! Thalia is an amazing friend, and we thought her story might show others that things really do get better. When experiencing rough times, it's hard to see that things get better and that there is hope for everyone, so I wrote this and got her consent to publish it here.
This poem gave me goosebumps. You two are both so strong. I cannot imagine what your friend must have been through, though I have experienced something similar with my mom, (she's okay now) and I know how hard it is, especially at such a young age. People like Thalia are the reason I want to become a pediatric oncologist when I grow up. Tell her she's an inspiration, you are a truly talented poet <3
Thanks, I'm glad your mom's okay now. Thalia says that she also wants to become a neurosurgeon too.
