This is a completely true story about one of my friends going through I guess you could say a really tough time. She's stressed and well...yeah. Everything in this poem is 100% true.
The picture to the side is by that girl.
----------
A girl had a crush on a guy
Who was happily dating her friend
So she waited in the corner
Sure that they would end
And after a little while
The end finally came
She hoped things would return
That they would stay the same
But her friends hated the other
And they forced her to choose
She became stressed and mad
Hopelessly confused
She stands in her kitchen now
Studying the curve of a knife
Hating what she had become
Hating her stressed life
She grabs a hold of the blade
And clenches her teeth tight
She brings the knife on her arm
Down with all her might
The knife only goes to skin
No blood at all drips out
But still she cries and weeps
Still she gives a shout
The knife clatters to the floor
As she runs to her room
What had she now become?
Was this really her doom?
She tells a friend what she did
She says, “Never again
I will not grab that knife
I will not do that sin”
The friend, shocked and scared
Goes and tells the guy
Who realizes what he's done
And slowly says with a sigh
“Do not ever speak of me
Do not say my name
Rid me from her mind for now
If I'm cause of her pain
Do not ever mention me
Remove me from her life;
I would never forgive myself
If she picked up that knife”
