THE UNKNOWN POEM

HER DEPRESSED AS I
CUTTING HERSELF LIKE I DO
SHE STARVING FOR DEATH
FEELING REJECTED AND ALONE
HEARTBROKEN AS SHE GOES
WRITING HOW SHE FEELS
EVERYTHING DOWN IN A NOTEBOOK
SCREAMING VOICES IN HER HEAD
AS I NOW HAVE
SHE VERY MUCH LIKE ME
HER FAMILY LIKE MINE
A PROTECTIVE MOM
A DAD THATS UNNOTICED
HER FEELINGS LAY AROUND
NEEDING A COUNSELOR
BUT HER FRIENDS DON'T SEE
THEY CANT TAKE ANOTHER BREAKDOWN
I KNOW WHAT IT IS
TO BE LIKE HER
OUR LIVES SO CLOSE
SO COMPLEX
SHE HELPS ME THROUGH
I THINK I HELP HER TOO
WE MAKE LIFE WORTH IT
JUST LIKE YOU
