Nothing Last Forever

It was a dark September night when she was born, This daughter would make there family of four. They tried there best and gave her everything they could, But in the end she needed more. She needed something they could not give, She needed peace and serenity in her mind. She needed the thoughts to be clear, She needed help of a different kind. It was a lonely September night when she sat alone in the dark, Her mind made up she could not take anymore. She didn’t want to hurt anyone but the hurt she felt was killing her, The pain could not be forgotten for in her mind it was kept and stored. She cried while the pills poured into her hand, Her failures shadowing her making her insane. She knew nothing lasts forever, She just wanted her tears to stop like the rain. With each pill she took her mind flashed back, She started to remember some of the good times she once had. Those thoughts were soon consumed by the dark, For every time she thought of the good it was always over powered by the bad.
