Poem: Cries at night

She laughs and smiles

All day when the sun is out

Puts on a grin and goes the extra mile

to make people forget

what was really going on in her head

how she cried every night

how her heart cried every moment,

She couln't act anymore

she coudn't get it together

so she tried to end it

that's when she found that it was not all fake

her friends were not made

they were given to her

and not just by fate.

so she cried every night

knowing how much she was loved

knowing how much she was hated

she cried every night

for the people she could not save

she cried every moment

over every death

over every failure hoping

just hoping

she would learn to love again

so she wouldn't have to cry at night

so she wouldn't have to die

so she could finally put on a smile

look a friend straight in the eye and say

This smile is for you

and it's true.
