The house was quiet,
Expect for the echoes of a girl crying,
All alone in an empty house.

The music gets louder and you know,
That's when the screams start to leave her mouth.

She's all alone
And you can feel it
You try everything to ignore it
But it's scratching at your heart to give in.

You go in the house
Shocked to see it opened.

You follow the trail of clothes, pills, tissues and glass.
You aren't afraid that she will hurt you, you already know the feeling oh too well.

You go in and see her break down, make up smearing her face and you hold her tightly trying to put her back together but you know its not that easy.

You sit, wishing you could do something as you caressed her face ever so gently, your touch a mere ghost on her face.
