No One There

I fell so deep but no one was there to catch me fall,
No strength present and love so absent,
A pain that forever would go on,
Shattered bearing and severed ties, a high heart’s decent.

Down below where nothing lays no one there to assist,
Falling hard; fast and deep into what’s unknown,
Your words help to slit  an already cut wrist,
No on one there to outstretch a hand for me to hold.

Knocking upon a door that fails to open; hopes and dreams are crushed,
No one there to reassure my pains are real and forever here,
Breaking down ties that shouldn’t have existed: relations that were rushed,
Love is for fairytales and happy endings are pretend and end with tears.
