Sometimes

A little poem I wrote while depressed one day!

SOMETIMES

Sometimes
I need to cry
But you
Won’t let me
Sometimes
I want to help
But you
Refuse my offer
Or
Find a better one
Sometimes
Others lend you aid
And you forget about all
That I’ve done for you
And I realize
That if it were me
In your shoes
These same people
Wouldn’t do the same for me
Sometimes
I hurt you
Although
I never mean to
Sometimes
When you are hurt
So am I
But I never tell you
Sometimes
I’m afraid to open up
To you
Because if I do
I may lose you
It has happened
Before
Sometimes
I’m lonely
And wish I had someone close
To talk to
But I don’t
So I just waste away
In my tears
In my pain
In my own shadows
Of depression
Afraid
Sad
Tired
Alone
Sometimes
I do cry
But no one will ever know
Because no one
Takes the time
To care
About me
