To anyone who knew her
She was always the Quiet One
Even when it mattered-
When the screaming in her head
Became much too loud
And all she wanted to do
Was to silence the demons inside
Telling her to jump.
What use was it
In speaking up?
In admitting she was as crazy
As they thought she was?
She just wanted to be accepted
Not sent to a mental asylum
For more people to look on
And wonder what’s wrong with her.
