Sorry?

I sit there, this isn't fair.

All of them have a friend.

I want to find one that's mine.

I can pretend to be fine, and pretend to be kind.

But the anger, the fear, the rage

Builds up

Consumes me.

I lash out.

Fists fly,

But only mine.

They're so scared,

They can't even move.

The kid who took everything

Now threw it all back.

She felt clean

Happy

Pure

For once

But she knew it wouldn't last.

Days later, darkness returns.

It's eyes are spaceless.

It isn't even human anymore.

It stands, stares, and takes everything.

It isn't living anymore, simply existing.

An attempt on her life.

A sharp steel dipping into skin

Repeats again and again.

This is her way of feeling again.

Too numb, can't breathe.

Her temporary reprieve is just that.

The darkness will return.

I finally have escaped.

Graduated from the place.

Found a new home with new kids.

It's better now.

The darkness is still there,

Not gone completely,

But it is manageable.

It's hard some days for me,

But I have a supportive community.

I hope it will stay like this.

Forever.
