The walls are closing in,
suffocating me in my wake.
As I tried to fake,
the smile on my face.
Whenever I was alone,
my confidence ever so slowly faded into nothingness.
Thoughts of despair blared in my mind.
Flashbacks of countless nights sobbing till I lost consciousness.
Seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, and years passed,
of feeling hopeless and discarded.
Being conscious during each and every second felt like being pierced with bullets.
The pain of my wounds, overwhelming me completely.
During this period of time,
I couldn't find a light in my darkness.
Me, a girl who's barely breathing
unable to see her surroundings any longer.
The girl in the corner of the classroom,
undesirable, weak, and completely invisible, she was.
Sitting alone,
losing myself in my dreadful thoughts.
Trying to reach for help, though I fall into complete oblivion.
She was the background no one noticed.
As she layed there barely alive,
a girl lost in the shadows of her past.
Fading away slowly into invisibility.
