I know you saw me
When nobody else would
You saw me
And turned away

The Hurt I felt
The loneliness I felt
And the weakness
I know you saw

You left me to die
You saw the final teardrop in my eye
That nobody else saw
But I know you saw it

I still remember that day
The day you couldn't bear to help
That day, is the only day I still remember 
Which Is why I can't forget it

That is what finally killed me
That last ever memory of you
You couldn't do it
But, I know you saw

This is for those who needed help and nobody gave it to them and just walked away

You definitely accomplished what you set out to do! This is very well written- sad but relatable and deserving of attention! I have one with the same kind of feel called "This?- This Is Nothing At All" if a little darker. :P

As a girl who knows surviviors of abuse, this was really heartbreaking.  I hope you eventually got the help you deserve.

This is a really sad poem.  Don't get me wrong, that's actually a good thing, making the reader feel emotion, but it's sad.

I like this a lot!!! I like how it doesn't straight out tell you what their trying to say, but it's understandable too. It's one of those poems a lot of people can relate to because it's vague, but meaningful. :)

I really like this poem. I have to say. Really good. There isn't much I would change about this (other than capitalizing the title). It's perfect. I really like it. I can totally relate to this. Awesome. Five stars, great job.
