Second Dying

Can you see the reflection
of how things used to be?
It replays in my mind
to become a different reality

Can you feel the pain
that's locked inside of me?
They took what they wanted and left
from birth is when we met

Can you hear the voices 
as they echo down the hall?
You left me out, for who decides
When it ends, are they gonna take it all? 

Can you feel my heartbeat
as it all comes crumbling down?
We lost our mom, dad left, as past sold
I never thought you could be so cold!

How can you just leave me
standing here all alone?
the pain never rests,
 why cant I just let it go?
