I want to Help
She cries in silence at night, and smiles throughout the day.
He plays the role of “Alpha Dog” throughout the school
Walls but cringes in pain as his name
Was screamed through his
Household walls.
No one sees the scars or tear marks on their cheeks.
No one listens to the cries for help.
The girl with red hair stuck in the needle in her arm
And eventually her pulse stopped beating.
But who paid attention?
The quiet kid in class pulled the rope around his neck
When he felt his couldn’t cope anymore.
But who cared?
The school’s punching bag sliced her skin
Until her vision was black.
But who noticed?
Thousands of faces are seen
Millions of emotions are hidden behind one simple smile.
He was unhappy and saw no reason to live
Bur no one asked him if he was okay?
They all need helped but no one saw it until
It was too late.
No one cared until they were laid in a boxed bed,
Someone finally dried their tears
But it was their own.
There’s an untold story behind every face we see,
There’s a bit of pain behind a long line
Of happiness that is expressed.
And there are some unfinished tears
Left in the eyes.
But there is a bunch of unspoken words that are left
In the echoes of silence.
And I want to hear them all
I want to give the tissue for all those unfinished tears,
I want to find the ending to the untold story,
I want to know the pain behind the happiness.
I want to be the listener before
It’s too late.
I want to be the hand that picks you up after you fall,
Before you decide to stay down forever.
I want to be the voice you hear, that tells you to continue with life
Before you decide to never see the
Light of day again.
I want to be there for you
Before you decide to give up.
I want to help you
Before it’s too late.
