Don't . Bother. Asking.
---an original
poem----
By: Brianna Urbina
Do you want to
know?
Do you really?
Fine.
Your little sister thinks she's
fat.
Your brother drinks to hide his pain.
That singer you're in love with,
He's F-A-K-E.
That girl you called stupid this morning,
she cried for hours.
That boy you think is weird,
He's never had a friend.
The girl who everyone thinks is perfect,
The meer thought of failure paralizes her.
The boy who always wears long sleeves,
cuts deep enough to scar.
And Finally,
Your best friend is keeping secrets.
She has a dangerous plan,
An escape route of the earth.
Only she doesn't plan on telling you,
When or why she's
pondering Taking it.
There you have it. Now you
know.
How does it feel?
To be stabbed through the heart,
With the sick reality that is our world?
And that's the problem with Today.
Everyone asks, but no one really wants to
hear.
And the few that do,
Are nowhere near prepared,
To hear the
truth.
Behind the
Eyes
--an original
poem--
by Brianna
Urbina
In a room, behind a
Locked door
A girls sits on her Unforgiving, tile floor
Her muffled sobs echoing off the walls
but no one's there to hear her cries
Her head's in her hands
She can't take it much longer
The pill's on the counter
It'll all be over soon
Unless someone stops
her.
She spends her final days
Waiting, to see if someone can tell
That there's a storm taking place inside
Behind her dark, dying, nebulous eyes
It's cause a collision
Of silent tears gone unseen
Stories left untold
And words she can't bare to speak
In the end no one saw
And her plan continued,
Uninterrupted.
In a room, behind a Locked door
A girl lays motionless on the floor
It didn't have to end this way
But no one asked the obvious question
And so the princess didn't live to see
How beautiful life could really be
Tell me, what has this
world come to?
