Do you remember her
now? The girl who never used to smile?
She might fall into your mind, and might
stay for while.
Do you remember her eyes, dark brown with
no glow?
She cried them out for hours when she had
no where to go.
Thick and faded scars entirely covered her
arm.
Did you ever stop to wonder words could do
such harm?
She told others to hold on, to keep going,
to stay strong.
You actually thought she was happy? You
were wrong.
Battling herself, she was trapped in her
very own mind.
A lost and broken child no one bothered to
find.
Wanting nothing more than for the pain to
finally end,
She settled for the only option; it was
time to drop dead.
Her fragile grip on hope was beginning to
wear loose,
Other thoughts consumed her mind, the gun,
pills, or noose?
This child was a lost cause, not worthy of
being missed.
Her hands were never held, her lips
remained unkissed.
No one stayed long enough to show that they
care,
The feeling of being worthless was just too
much to bare.
Recovery became an idea way out of her
reach.
Why could she save others, but not practice
what she preached?
She treated others so lovely, but herself
like dirt.
Was there ever a day not filled with
hurt?
She insisited she was fine, it was what
they wanted to hear.
She had them fooled, while she planned to
disappear.
She kept her share of secrets, one she
would never tell.
Outside she remained quiet, but her mind
was begging to yell.
The darkness never faded, it never turned
to light.
"That's it" she said, "I
give up!" It all ended tonight.
A friend could have saved her, maybe
convince her to stay.
But everyone she
opened up to, gave up along the way.
She could have made it far, but
couldn't do it on her own.
Maybe this would be different if she
wasn't so alone.
You thought she could make it through
whatever,
And now she is done, and will be gone
forever.
Her time is up, she put the gun to her
head.
Her hand slowly pulls the trigger, bang
bang, she's finally dead.
She is finally peaceful.
