You’re the type of girl,
Who sits in silence,
Watching the world around you spin
And curve.
But you are the girl
Who refuses to see anything but
The blackness of the life around you,
When there is so much light to behold
If you only would
Open your eyes.
I’ll promise you light if
You promise me to
Unclose your eyes.
You could finally see the
Stunning nature of being alive.
Take a look around girly,
You’re gorgeous.
Enough of the sad songs
And nights filled with anger.
Don’t feel pain that should have
Already passed,
Don’t lie, its old anger,
Sadness, frustration, shaking
It should be done with.
All those things will disappear
As long as you let them go.
You won’t let your life fade away
With one moment of frustration.
Once they’re gone, they
Won’t come back.
New problems might cross your path,
But always remember what
Everybody has told you,
Everything and everyone has a reason,
And it will all fade someday.
Don’t give up on your will power.
You can stop yourself from doing
Those things that you say help
When you secretly know they
Only hurt you more in the end.
You don’t need to die to
Stop hurting yourself.
The scars will vanish along with time
I swear.
You know you don’t want to be like this.
You can make a change if you want to
We don’t need to fall to keep breathing,
Do we?
So wake up,
Its a beautiful day today.

Wow, very touching. I'm not even sure unclosing is a word, but it doesn't matter. It makes sense and it fits in the poem. Wonderful
I would add you to the finalists, but you need to add that something about ponies and your name (read the rules again). -

I love this!
It's so very good! I love it! It's Awesome. I'm glad you wrote this! I wish so many people could read this, because they are throwing their life away, really, when they hurt themselves. i think it helped that you didn't right out say 'cut' themselves, because some people do so much. it was a lovely write. i applaud!
