No One

I totally meant this poem to be for my best friend who's going through a rough time with a break up but for some odd reason when I was writing it out my mood totally switched and I started feeling the pain of a young girl I know who cuts. Its a short poem but It speaks the truth. So often people struggle and ask for no help and we just walk past them leaving them to fight their battle alone. :(

Wanders

In the corner she cries
All crumpled and scared
Alone in the dark
with no one to care

This pain is too heavy--
to carry alone but no one--
will notice the scars she hides
and so it is, she wanders alone.
