And Silence.

Ever had those days when everything looks like it's your fault?

Ever really thought that nothing can sway you so long as people have your back?

Ever kind of thought where that would leave you should those people whom you thought had your back just out and ditched you, for even a moment?

You just feel like screaming. Some people, they don't yell it out. They don't talk it out. Mainly because they don't want to. In other cases, they just can't. There's no one to hear them and even if there are, they don't want to have to burden others or ruin their day by letting them see another person hurt or cry.

Nah, that'll make anyone's day miserable.

Furthermore, what's there to stop someone from giggling behind the crying person's back? What's there to stop the common notions;

"What, she's crying over THAT? Puh-lease..."

"This is gonna get on YouTube/Facebook and beat Chris Crocker in views for sure...!"

"Oh come on, I've just gone to the top of the world to the pits of Hell. Stop your whining and get over it already, shit happens."


But you know... the people who are talking it out right then... they just don't need that.

They feel like shit as it is, they feel so alone. The many options in their heads as a cry for help plumetted down to just one simple thought;




"Leave me alone."





And that's exactly what they do.

If it were ever possible, they'd just stay cooped up in their rooms, crying to themselves, beating themselves mentally or just plain shut down. At times like these, everything just seems too much to take.

They feel that nobody cares.

Nobody trusts them.

Nobody loves them.

Nobody understands.

And worst of all, no matter how you say that you really do trust, love, care and understand them, it'll just go the opposite way to the crying person.

What is there to do for them?

It's a dead-end no matter where you go. You sit around and look at them, you just make yourself look like an idiot for just sitting there and not doing anything.

You try to talk to them but you know that the moment you so much as say "Hey..", they'll explode in your face, throw you out of their rooms and just scream for you to leave them alone.


What can people possibly do to help?


What can the person possibly do to ease that pain?


As a matter of fact, what can anyone do when the hurt person has started getting ideas, staring out of the window, at the sky, almost longingly, then look down at the cold concrete of their 2nd floor bedrooms?


What can anyone do to stop the inviting mantra;

"If I disappear, it'll all go away."



Above all else...

Do you think that the people who turned their backs on these poor souls, as pitiful their crimes may have been, and as trivial their problems were...


Do you think that they would think twice next time when they realize that all that person felt like screaming out was one simple word?










Do they realize...




All that rings in their heads...

















"Help."
