Pain Is Silent

Your words don't have to be

31
Pain Is Silent
The silent pain

So I decided this week to share a poem. I made this poem because there has been a lot of controversy in this world with bullying and suicide. Some people say that someone killed their self for attention or that victims should just get over everything that is done to them. People don't get what words do to other people. They don't understand what someone goes through in a day. They definitely don't understand that hitting someone is not an option. So when I write I speak for everyone. Pain is silent, but words don't have to be.

They don’t trust you

They don’t feel how you feel

They don’t know what you know

They don’t heal how you heal

They don’t know the process

The guidelines to my brain

Not hip to my secrets

Or if pain is really pain

They come and they go

Trying to say that they care

But enough ain’t enough

Life’s a blank stare

They don’t know my direction

They don’t fear what I fear

They don’t know that I’m crying

They can’t hear what I hear

And just for second

Everything feels good

Then I realize I can’t win life

even when I should

The very few friends

Will think that I’m selfish

Cause when It all finally ends

They’ll know I was helpless

They might ask questions

Like why didn’t she talk?

My pain was silent

Tears running down the clock

They put me through a lot

They don’t know the fight that I fought

Beat down, broken, and bought

Yeah… I said bought

They don’t know you,

They don’t Feel you

They don’t Heal you

Bang bang, all they did was kill you

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
