Pictures
Unspoken
She paints a picture on her
wrist,
And thinks if she's gone, she'll never be missed.
But her smile never fades, although she's heartbroken.
She fears only herself, and leaves her words left unspoken.
The last time she felt happy? She can't remember when.
She only cries and feels the taste of going where she's
been.
He feels the same as she does, and wants to end his pain,
He starts and ends his day with the picking of his blade.
The words they say...they hurt him.
He'll never be the same.
He's fat and ugly, stupid, dumb, and every other name.
But no one sees, and no one asks, so he's stuck living inside
his past.
He spends his day planning only how to live his last.
They slip under the radar,
And think it's for the best.
They'll find a time it'll work, to end their hurt,
To be free and happy at last.
And "suddenly" they're gone.
At least that's what they say.
The rigid knife, that ended his life
Was used before that day.
She decided to jump, left her cruel world with
a..."thump".
But this plan took more than just days.
They painted pictures unspoken,
Ones we chose to ignore.
They never used to have pain,
Why weren't their lives the same as before?
There's only one thought we can gather,
As we kneel upon their graves,
Their lives were truly something we had to power to
save.
