Someone Who Cares

She looks around with tired eyes
Wondering where her life has gone

Darkness lingers in her heart
Released only by the slice of a silver blade

Faded scar from a week before
And an empty heart once more 

Open to the world covered only by a veil of air
Still over looked unseen by all

A silent wish to be saved from herself
Saved by someone who cares 
For people to realize she is here
To give her the love and support she needs
