I wish

just a girl.

I wish you knew. 

I wish you knew I cry myself to sleep, 

I wish you knew how I slit my wrists and smile,

I wish you knew how empty I feel on the inside, 

I wish you knew my everyday pain,

I wish you knew all the promises he didn't keep,

I wish you knew how deep I actually am,

I wish you knew the pile of sadness I have,

I wish you knew how much I appreciate you came,

I wish you knew the leap your taking by dating me, 

but you won't, you won't ever.

    I honestly love this.. I can really relate to it and it shows that you are brave enough to express how you actually feel. When I was in a deep stage of depression, there was no way I could have mustered up the courage to do that!

      Thank you so much! It just warms my heart to know that someone can relate there self to this!

        I hope you continue to write on a basis like this. Like you said, it does help to know that there are others out there who feel the same, and you never know. Maybe we can help each other, in some cases. <3

          Well written poem. I like how you use the repetition of "I wish you knew" to hammer away at the point. Very well written, very emotional, very personal.
