Lost Child

She feels so lost so left behind So forgotten the empty agony of it Feels as if its literally crushing her into the ground She can feel the shackles On her wrists, ankles, neck and waist Bounding her inside She comes to this house feeling like A prisoner on death row But the pain never stops The torture just drags on till she feels like she cant breathe There is nothing more that she desires but to be free She tires of these faceless walls Of this empty house She tires of being treated like a speck of a person She tires of playing in a game where no one plays fair She carries this unfulfilled weight on her soul She's in isolation Stuck in a cage left behind watching the world go by trying, Fighting so hard to get out to reach out to someone yet when she attains brief glimpes of freedom its as if everyone and everything Around her as grown past the point of needing her Its like she barely exsists anymore she feels herself slipping fading away Until she's nothing more than a shadow How long she vanishes all together Into nothing more than a haunting melody on the winds
