Poetry

Does it

ever get better she cries on this long day.

The cold air outside feels a lot like what she feels like on the inside right.

she wants to give up so bad and yet she keeps running in hope that she will run into the right arms.

And someone will save her from the pain that is eating her alive.

Leaving her big heart so small and closed off now.

Her energy is slowly fading as she walks into the light and the person she used to be is no more.

She’s told over and over that giving up isn’t the answer and that she matters.

But, at the same time those people keep pushing her away and whispering behind her back that she is not worth saving.

She doesn’t know who to believe and so she keeps running and hoping the solution to her problems.

Will come to her soon because she can’t keep living this way.
