Silent Screams by a Lonely Teen

It is time for us as a nation to pay closer attention to the behavoirs of our teenagers

  • 19.3 percent of high school students have seriously considered killing themselves.

  • 14.5 percent of high school students made actual plans for committing suicide

  • 900,000 youth planned their suicides during an episode of major depression.




  • Alone confused and scared
    Lost in a world of dreams
    An outcast of society
    No one to hear his screams
    Mistreated abused and betrayed
    A victim of his own fears
    His world is filled with darkness
    Cast aside by all his peers
    Depression turns into rage
    His words turn into fists
    The constant torment is what drives him
    To etch words into his wrists
    Not a friend beside him
    A true family he does lack
    His only friend is misery
    As he decides theres no turning back
    Another young life ended too soon
    No one heard his screams
    Rejected by society
    He was lost in a world of dreams.
