You look at me like you know me the harsh truth is you don’t.
You walk past me like I am nothing but dirt under your feet. The clothes I wear aren’t new there holly and old. The house I live in is broken dreams cold abandoned is my life. When I look at you I see hope in your eyes, life wait is that pity for a split second looks like it. Then I realize it is nothing but a smirk.
Do you think of me strange?
Probably so why do you look down on me am I not the same? Do you know how many times I spend alone in this building full of broken dreams the place called home? Sitting in the tub alone it won’t hurt but a minute then it will be numb. As I recall you never knew that girl you made fun of laughed at.
Committed suicide last night you start thinking to yourself and feeling bad. Knowing you could have tried to be a friend when no one else would. You find yourself going to the cemetery no one is there. They are putting her to rest you fall to your knees in tear’s.
You walk to her house no one is there so you go inside there is no lights. You find a note on the floor… I wish I had a friend I am so tired the only place I can go is my real home where my true friends are. Whoever finds this look to the sky I will be watching.
Because the fact of the matter is. No one is here to care!
This is my first time writing a thing like this so I don't know what everyone thinks. For those suffering from Depression please always remember your not alone.
i like this, Its really Expressive and Conveys your feelings well. This type of poetry would be considered a Free-write, because the Rhythm evokes a more serious tone, instead of the sing song like quality found in most poetry. As a Depression Sufferer, with various other mental disabilities, I found this easy to relate to, and expressed well. Good Job at your first attempt. :)
Your writing might not be perfect but what is - is the raw honestly of the content. How good it would be to hold your hands and say.. 'you have a friend'. Being lonely, feeling isolated is a desperation hard to delete. But think this way, perhaps: If you can write in the way you can, you can do virtually anything, taking things slowly, whilst trying hard to find some light.. even as simply by focussing on something, anything, small and see it grow.. as you can.
This post is worth gentle but genuine applause. laura. Special writing.
