Couldn'T You See? Poem by ESPN CHICK

I was lonely couldn't you see
The pain and misery in my eyes
I was hiding the tears
Hiding the fact that I didn't want to live
Didn't cover up those couple scars
surprise no one fronted me bout those
Thought by now I would be in tears
I knew then no one cared
Went along with their average day life
Didn't have anyone to turn to so I just buried deep in myself
Wanted to stay shut up for the longest Just listening to music to sooth my soul
It felt like I couldn't do anything right
It felt that people would just stare at me for no apparent reason whatsoever
Wanted to runaway find a gun and shoot myself
Didn't you see all the signs and warnings
All those poems I wrote about dying
Guess you were just too blind to see what is in front of you
