Nearly Unnoticed
by Reese
She is lonely
Even though you can't tell
She is reaching out
For what, she doesn't know
She will continue to sit in silence
And hope that someone may stumble across
Her and all of her emptiness
But they only hope that they do it in time
Otherwise she will have drifted too far
And she may let go
Of whatever grasp of the world she has
As she slowly fades out of the lives of everyone
Nearly unnoticed.

I really liked your poem. I know how you feel. Last Christmas (2004) I took a drug overdose. I felt that was the only way out. I'll never do it again. God helped me see the light and now I am finally happy. Keep your head up and remember there are people that do love you.
