So Empty

She sits in her house all day long.
wondering where her life went wrong
What wrong choice did she make?
What wrong road did she take?
Is this all her life amounts to?
Sitting around with nothing to do.
She asks what if every night and day,
and wonders if she'll be okay.
She wonders why she feels so low,
and asks herself if she should go.
Why is she so confused?
Why does she feel so used and abused?
Unoticed, unliked by all it seems.
Good things only happen in her dreams.
She wants a purpose for her life.
It cuts through her like a knife.
Right now it seems it'll never end,
this empty feeling her heart sends.
