Description
The pain of yesterday is vivid in our minds,
The words that were said,
The blood that was shed,
The scars burned into our hearts.

We held that blade so tightly,
Our hands shaking under the weight,
Of an impossible decision.

Sometimes the pain is just too much,
Sometimes you have to let go,
Let go of this world,
Let go of yourself,

As you fly away,
We won’t blame you.

Your memory will stay with us,
We will remember you for your smile,
For your beautiful laugh,
For the way your voice sounded,
You will not be forgotten.

Sometimes our hands shake too much,
And the blade falls to the ground,
But I am not a survivor.

Sometimes we choose to try to withstand the pain,
We chose to burry ourselves in it,
We chose to let our heart hurt.

Depression is a word that leaves lips easily,
But the word itself is heavy,
It’s a weight no one can imagine,
And is different for everyone,
And for everyone it effects,
We all choose different ways to handle it.

Some choose to grow wings and fly away,
The choose real smiles and a life without pain,
Some choose to withstand it,
They choose to push forward,
But neither is wrong.

Everyone is beautiful,
No matter the scar they bare,
Remember that that smile might be fake,
Behind it lies an endless sadness,
Tears that need to be shed.

All you have to do is outstretch a hand,
And let them know it’s okay to cry.
