Can ears bleed from lack of sound?
No deaf ears can be turned around.
Can eyes burst from lack of light?
No blind eyes can stop this fight.
Can lungs burn from lack of air?
No more lungs are there to tear.
Can people die from lack of life?
No amount of that can heal this strife.

In need of help or attention whore?
It just won't stop there's always more!
Truly in love or afraid to be alone? 
I should stab myself with broken bone.
Headaches for water or migraine of stress?
It just builds up, no time to rest.
Crying alone or never cry?
I just can't bring myself to die.

You can cry for help, but no one hears,
No sound has given them bloody ears.
You can wave them down, but none will stop,
No light has made their eyes pop.
You can listen close, but you will tire,
No air has made their lungs catch fire.
You reach out to them, but feel a knife,
Because of all this, you took your life.
Just something I did when I was really stressed, but I'm feeling much better now!

An absolutely wonderful piece for such a heavy topic. (I'm a bit inexperienced with writing, so bear with me!)

I really love how this sums up the struggles of a person with depression and/or any other mental illness, and for me personally it did bring up a few less than fond memories from when I was a little girl. More often than not, those who actually have these problems have to deal with others that may claim that they're faking and it can make a situation that much worse. A person can scream and cry all they want, and when no one bothers to listen or just flat out ignores it, they often feel as if death is the only choice.

Overall, I thought this was a very powerful piece in the sense of showing what may be going through a person's head when they truly feel this way. Nicely done, and I hope to read more from you!
