My tears stain all my pillows,
And my mouth is covered by tape
Living just to feel something
Other than sadness and pain
Busied by my thoughts
They leave me feeling alone
My body so broken
With nothing left to own
Remembering what I went through,
But also knowing what I can take
Having people there to help,
But wondering how far will they follow?
Does the story end here,
Or is more sorrow to come?
Can I reach the light ahead,
Or am I stuck in the dark?
Dreaming that I am free
Not always sad to be
Knowing I can make it through
I just need to know what to do

Ah, this story has been overtold by us.. [teenagers]. It's tragic how many people feel that. Good imagry and expression.

that's a life of a teenager!

some of the lines rhymed but the others didn't, i would have liked it more there were more rhymes.. but it's still good.
