As She Fades Away

She wears a mask upon her face.
She hates those inevitable judgements.
All she wants is to find a place.

The smile is painted,
It's just as fake as the makeup,
It's to cover up and hide her soul that's tainted.

She tells herself she's strong,
That she's so much more than this,
But she knows she's so wrong.

They can't know.
They can't comprehend.
They can't stop the daggers that they throw.

She's tired of fighting.
She has tried for far too long,
For she can't keep on delighting.

Tears gush out of her tired eyes,
Just as the blood pours out of her veins,
She can't stand to say her goodbyes.

She wants it to end,
But she's too afraid.
For death no one can mend.

She has found no purpose here.
Anything she does is futile.
If she could just disappear.

Would anyone care?
Would anyone notice?
It was too much for her to bear.

Now she's gone, she's lost
And she can't come back
No matter what the cost.

My Final Wish

Shadows all around me. As I slip into the dark. The fragility of my mind. Relays the state of my heart. I know I can't carry on like this,. Every day is a war. I used to want your company.

End

Who would have thought. Today would be the last. No more will there be. Only whatever awaits. In a lonely afterlife. No more sky. No more earth. No more sea. No more anything. The clouds are grey.

Fading Away

#household Rather than a mirror, she preferred to see her reflection in a window pane. Ghostly and ephemeral, seen but never touched, to appear but not remain.

I sound weak. I sound tired. I sound sick. Just don't talk to me. I'm done with you. I'm done with her. I hate myself. And I really do. Help me please. I am unloved. I feel my heart beating.

Maybe..

Broken promises of a better day to come. We strive to go on lonelier than ever before. Thinking of those memories that cut like knives, we soon turn to things that can take our lives, but does it do.

Lifeless

Hollow sunken-in eyes. Ripped and tattered old dress. This young girl. Was really in a mess. Empty soul. Lifeless, but not yet dead. Empty mind. Muffled by the pills in her head.
