No One

by a. rennie(Gemini) - Not entered

i said i needed no one
to help me make it through
and almost found out too late
how far that was from true.

No One was there to give support
when i was at the end of my rope,
just as No One was there
when i had run out of hope.

No One saw the tears
that i could not shed
and No One knew the thoughts
that were running through my head.

No One really cared alot
whether i lived or died
and i was so grateful
No One saw the pain inside.

No One could even see
when things got to be too tough
and No One heard my silent screams
when i'd finally had enough.

No One gave me answers
i searched for, for so long.
No One even told me
i had done nothing wrong.

No One saw the danger
that i was heading for
and No One gently told me
that i could wait no more.

Place your name in all but the first
no one's that you see.
i just wanted you to know
what your friendship means to me.

Reason for writing:

    i wrote this for a dear friend and confidant.  If it hadn't 
been for her, i would not still be here to write anything.

Please feel free to give this to someone as special in your
life, who has been there for you as Cassie was for me.
 i only ask that you don't try to pass it off as your own
work.  My writing is pretty much all i have but i'm glad to 
share it.
