Crying

by Kaci - Aries

Crying in the corner
Of my dimmly colored room.
Fighting to keep alive
To keep my mind at bay.

Thoughts swirl around
A whirlwind of questioning and doubting
The monster in my head,
Wanting to get out of it's prision.

I look at all my friends
How happy they ust be.
No unhappy thoughts
Not feeling they are being judged.

By everyone you've come to know.
By parents, adults,  and friends.
No one knows how you feel.
For the smile you force to keep.

Crying in the corner
Of my dimmly colored room.
I cast my eyes up towards the heavens
And feel a hope withen.

A love and understanding
OF a peace I never had.
That time will take care of problems.
And God will erase all guilt.

As a I sit crying in my room.
My tears turn to joy.
The dimness fades away.
And color fills the room.

The  sweet sound of singing birds 
Fills the quiet space.
A breeze flows softly through the window.
Rembrence of a childhood past.

I stand up off the hardwood floor.
Ready to face a brand-new day.
Not only knowing but feeling,
Everyone else might be against you,
But one person will never leave.
