Smile and laugh,
hide the tears.
Don't you cry
or show your fears.
You're stronger, my dear.
Not lost,
not yet.
Stay strong and true.
Be unafraid.

Don't scream, my love.
You're finally here.
A saddened dove,
now supposed seer.

Don't leave me alone.
I see you laugh.
But I suppose that I cannot postpone
what has come all along.
You're a lost cause, my sweet.
And you turn from the light,
the one you once ran to,
once upon a lifetime.

The author's comments:
She used to be my best friend and I helped her out of her depression. I fell in love with her and she became angry.
Feeling as though I was the cause of her anger, she left me.

It all felt in vain.

Hey, I know how hard it is to help someone with depression. Good job on that. Also, anger is a second emtion, and she was probably just confused and took it out on you. Keep your head up and everything will work out.
