Depressus

Every time I look in her eyes I wonder who holds her when she cries You would never guess what’s behind that mask You wouldn’t have the respect to ask She never lets it falter and fall She keeps on going despite the horror in it all Losing herself because no one else cares Almost too late to stop the razor blade tears Sick of always feeling hopeless Done with constantly being useless Finished with fighting unwinnable wars Covered in blood from the final holes she bores Wondering if they’ll be too late Counting on no one saving her fate She cries alone in the dark night Bloody and broken from every days fright Getting weaker and weaker inside Pleading for this pain to one day subside With tears spilling from agony filled eyes Trying not to scream while she cries Pleading with a deaf god by day Hoping before morning she’ll be death’s prey
