RJE1987's Journal

I wrote this about 4 years ago, but forget about it until I was poking through my old journal. Now I am sharing it with you guys.

I AM

I am a poet writing of my pain.

I am a person living a life of shame.

I am your son hiding my depression.

I am your neighbor making a good impression.

I am your friend acting like I'm fine.

I am wisher, wishing this life wasn't mine.

I am a child who thinks of suicide.

I am a teenager pushing the tears aside.

I am a student who doesn't have a clue.

I am the one sitting next to you.

I am asking you to care.

I am the best friend hoping you'll be there.
