Description

Lonely are matters of the heart
not once, not twice
too many times to count
no one should care we all live seperate lives
but to pretend you know stings like air lost under water
I know your lies will drown me so I fight to stay alive,
Lash back, fire tounged,
to stop your murderous words
after the struggle all that's left:
a shell of the former beauty
shamed by my actions
left with no options other than to shut out the world
self anihalation, loss of my identity
where has she gone?

she hides in the shadows fighting back the dark thoughts
no matter how she tries they won't let her rest,
screaming in her ears like a banshee calling her to her death:
'come child, come and play, we won't let them hurt you'
her gaurd drops down as she breaks,
pieces of her soul, a mirrior, scattered, insignifigant
reflect the tormenting nightmares,
'sleep child, you'll be okay, stop fighting and come away'
she leaves behind the mangled body,
forgets she ever was,
destined to roam in search of her identity.
