The Unsaid Bond

I was sad
And depressed
No one cared
Was all I assessed

I thought
That life was tough
And I am too tender
To live in a place so rough

I was about to give up
And end it all
I was on the verge
To finish and fall

But a voice came
It was my friend
He said he observed
The arrival of my end

He explained
How he cared
And stopped me
From taking a step that I dared

He told me
To think again
And to think what happened
What lead to me being so insane

I realised
It was a matter of feelings
That were pent for life
Which stopped me from healing

I was tore
And thought I had no one
But it was my fault
To not cry when it was to be done

I never confronted
And never asked for help
I deteriorated within
To the point I broke and fell

But now I was relieved
After being rid of the insects
That resided in me
And had a negative effect

To all those
Who suffer pain
There is nothing so sad
That you die in vain

Think what is wrong
And try to retrace it
The problem is not life
But the fear to embrace it
