Realization of Reality
You're crying and dying,
But somehow still trying.
The beat in your heart
Wants a fresh start.
They all think they know you,
But they don't have a clue.
You're all smiles on the outside,
But on the inside you're fried.
Tears stream down your skin
You wonder, why can't I win?
All of the hate and pain
Chokes you like a chain.
Sometimes you smile a bit,
And that you must admit.
When you start to smile
The sun shines over a mile.
You think you're more than broken
And you leave some words unspoken.
However, my dear
I don't want you to fear.
Even though you are unhappy,
And this may sound sappy,
This person is never leaving
For you, she's always believing.

I wrote this for my best friend who feels the way no one should ever feel: unwanted. She is such a special person and I want her to see that. I hope people will read this and just send a nice text or write a nice letter to someone who really needs it. Making people you love feel better is a heart warming thing that I hope you can experience. Thank you.
