A crying girl in great pain
Lost in enternal plans of rank emotions.
Fearing that she never will feel joy again
Or a love that is strong.
Calling upon forgotten memories,
Searching for her lost hopes and dreams,
Well praying to a dead God,
For help that she wont recieve.
Asking questions with no answers
To her, her future seems far to bleak to look upon,
So she's frozen in the present, well continuing to look at her past.
Slowly thoughts of death consume her mind,
Cut and other marking's on her wrist that show her way of dealing with the pain.
Tears that fall from her face,
Tears that know one will ever see.
She wears a fake smile, a mask
To hide her true feelings from those who only want to help.
Feeling alone in the world, unwanted and useless,
As if no one cares.
Lacking confidence in herself, believing she is unworthy of life,
Being someone other than herself,
Pretending she is something she is not.
Caring for and helping others, but neglecting herself,
She tells herself she can't when others say she can.
She harms herself with harsh words, weapons and toxins,
Telling others to love themselves when she hates herself.
When she cries she reaches for a knife not knowing shes hurting everyone else.
She tells her friends she loves them but she hurts them when she hurts herself.
She worries all her friends and people who barely know her,
She puts herself through pain and says she deserves it.
She is a bully to herself,
She deals with her pain in ways that slowly make things worse.
Blinded by the lies she tells herself, she can't see how important see is to so many others, who only wish her the best.
So when she gets better and i know she will,
I will always tell her how much she means to me.

so sad
This is such a sad and powerful write. So many negative emotions, and I think many young people will be able to relate to them.
The last 2 lines end this write perfectly.
Good luck in this contest!

Pretending she is something she is not."
