I can relate to your poem very much. Just because you have everything, doesn't mean you are happy. People never understood how I could feel badly about myself, but they don't see me the same way I see me.

Vanessa

Unique

omg!that was sooo beautiful and very true. when i read it, i started to cry because it reminded me of one of my friends. holding on to past pain trully depresses u because then u never see wat u trully are. is that what your poem is saying? correct me if i'm wrong. but from what i see tat's wat I THINK its saying.

Riley

You speak the truth Mitchell, that's all that needs to be said.

Your poem has touched me and im sure many other's. Reading this makes me feel like there are other's going threw this also, not just me.

I was moved by your poem and being a suffer from clinical depression myself, I belive that this is a personal battle which cannot be faught alone, no matter how hard one tries. Sadly, very few people understand how one feels or thinks when suffering from this illnes. We loose many people whilst we battle against all odds. I lost my family, my friends, the man I loved and also myself. It's true when they say that you have to have gone through it to understand but why is it so many people dont take the time to even attempt to try? Is it because it is easier to turn their back than see someone they love destruct themselves?

Your so lucky your friends were with you when you went through this i went through the same thing and i thank god he and my friends were there when i was going through this painful heartbreak the guy cut me so deeply that still that cut hasnt meand i dont think it ever will

How honorable of you to help your friend out. After her break-up, it seems she turned to drugs and other bad things. You seem to find her beautiful, but she does see herself that way. Some people don't feel 'beautiful' after a relationship has gone sour. You are a good friend.

Cece

Your poem is really touching and inspiring. I have suffered from depression before and I understand what your saying.

none

its a nice poem, i can relate to the person who wrote this. At this moment i an in love with this girl i bearly know. No one understands how i feel when she won't even say hi.

miki

great poem

Erica

I really liked this poem because it shows that no matter what trouble you're in, you will always have those special friends in your life that are there to help you out. And for your friend, I hope she realized what she had, and that she decided to stand tall.instead of fall.

Andre

This is a great poem. It reminds me of this girl that I liked, she looked great, was very smart, and had everything going for her, except that she did not see what she had, but what she did not have.
