She watches the shadows

The shadows cast by the departing

She calls out their names

But no reply returns

Tears roll down her cheeks

Falling helplessly to the ground she sobs

Eyes reddened by the salty liquid

Why she yells

Why was she the one whom everyone left

She gets deemed unworthy before she's had a chance

Just a monster they call her

How could anyone fall in love with her

She's just cruel and heartless

Or so she's been told

Too many times has she been hurt

Hurt by the people she cared for most

In the end they just leave

And this whole scene replays

Except this time it will be different

She looks at the knife

That had been thrown down at her feet

Picking it up slowly

She raises it to her chest

Putting both hands on it

She thrusts it between her ribs

Deep inside right where her heart is

Yes the heart that she does have

Except it stopped beating long ago
