We notice the wind
And we notice the rain
We notice the clothes
And those barely visible stains
But what we cant see
Is what's buried inside
The pain, and the hate
That everyone hides
We cant see the bruises
From words thrown out
We cant tell the voices
Not to shout
Why must we think
That no one is sad
That no one feels pain
And that fights are bad
Why can't we cry
And why cant we fight
Against all of those demons
Who put out our lights
Our worlds are dark
With no way to see
This is no way to live
And no way to be
We cant keep living
In constant fear
Of the monsters inside us
That form so many tears
When does it stop
And when will it end
This pain is too strong
And it will not bend
Why generalize all of this
Why must I say "we" instead of I
And why must I think
I'm the only one who wonders why
It all makes me wonder
What has happened in my life
That's makes me feel weak
And want to end my strife
And why does it feel
So good to let it all go
All of the things
I will never let show
This poem is too long
And crappy all the same
But I can't help but feel
All of my shame
Why do I write so pointlessly
When I know no one will see
The girl I've stuffed inside
And the girl I was supposed to be
I wont give up
And I refuse to give in
I wont let these demons out
And I wont let them win
So all in all
What I'm trying to say
Is dont give up
Because of one bad day
You're worth so much
Way more than you think
So keep your heads up
Keep refusing to sink
