Dark Days
The blood drips down her leg
Wondering what she did to deserve this
The life flows from the wounds she created.
The blade and blood is her true form of accepting.
Caring. Loving. Trusting,
All having sick and twisted definitions in her head.
Everyone hates her so why should she try?
Questions continuously swallowing the silence
The love she feels is false and empty
She has become bitter and broken but goes unnoticed.
The hard shell she has is not to keep you out,
Rather to keep her pieces contained
She once loved with her whole existence..
Worthless she feels.
The blood drips to the floor
The lights get blurry
Maybe this way she will feel important
Loved, missed, cared for.
When she is gone the love will pour in
Even as the blood pours out
But as she floats somewhere between
Her hallow shell filled with broken pieces
Hidden from the world until the day it’s released
She cries and say her last good byes.
The final good byes will be just that.
The blood runs slower down her leg
The lights get darker
She whispers “I will be loved now”
Darkness consumes the once pretty girl in an ugly scene
Lost to the selfishness of others
A beautiful soul, released of the pain she was burdened with.
Free to float and now be loved.
