This is for the hurting

Who hide away their pain

Their lives aren’t easy

Since the hurt is their bane


For the ones depressed

Who get told it’s fake

“You’re just sad, it’ll pass”

Their darkness is an ache


For the anxious ones

Who stress each day

“Just calm down”

Easy for others to say


For the ones struggling to eat

Who get told they’re picky

“Eat more” “Eat less”

Pressure makes it tricky


For the ones who harm

It’s not for attention

“You just want pity”

Those words add to the tension


The ones with attention issues

Sure, they disturb the setting

“Sit still and just be quiet”

They’re trying, so stop fretting.


This is for the hurting

The ones hiding their pain

They suffer in silence

And live with their bane
