I am 13 years old with big brown eyes, alone in the dar, lost inmy own tears.
I wonder if anyone notices I am here.
I hear the quietness as i sit alone confused.
I see how you think "I am okay", but I am not at all.

I am 13 years old with big brown eyes, alone in dark. lost in my own tears.
I pretend to act like nothing's wrong so you don't ask.
I feel worried and don't know what to do.
I touch friends' hearts that are alone with me.
I worry that I wont help myself, as I do my friends.
I cry most nights, letting my mind be flooded with thoughts.

I am 13 years old with big brown eyes, alone in the dark, lost in my own tears.
I understand my dreams wont come true unless I believe in myself.
I say I want all this to be better so my depression will leave me.
I dream one day you will understand.
I try to help myself to feel better, but it always comes back.
I hope one day all this sadness will leave me.

I am 13 years old with big brown eyes, alone in the dark, lost in my own tears.

I found this piece of work, after rummaging through my bedroom recently. In 7th grade I wrote this for my AVID class for an assignment, surprisingly I won this little reward for it, and at the time i really connected with this poem. I've always really Loved getting my feelings down on paper.
