"Another Poem" (for my bezfriend)

Ever wonder what she does

When no one is around?

When she's locked up in her room

and doesn't make a sound.



Does it run through your head!

That she may need some help?

She can't escape, alone!

From the bottom of this hell.



Don't you ever wonder!

What runs through her head?

When she tries to fall asleep

All alone in her bed.



Don't you realize she's afraid?

To be left all alone?

That's why she does those things

When no one is at home.



When she's alone in her room

She cuts ‘till she sees blood.

Can't you see her arms?,

and the stains on the rug?



When she's alone in her room

She hopelessly cries.

Can't you see the sorrow

Pouring from her eyes?



When she's alone in her room

She begs God to set her free.

Can't you hear it in her voice?

LISTEN TO HER! (silent please…)



The next time you walk out

Please let her know she's not alone

For she might not be alive

by the time you come back home.
