Why are you so blind?
How are you so kind?
Yet, darkness swirls in your mind
Your eyes see what no one else will
All the pain, all the suffering, those who in cold blood kill
And you bear it all on your own
A weight I could not condone
Dark seeps deep into bone
Now, you can no longer see the light
You long ago gave up your fight
You always worked so hard to make others smile
Their opinions you did beguile
They never saw the broken girl
Heart stained black as a midnight pearl
Holding the knife to her wrists, her sides
The demons in her mind being her guides
She no longer felt any love
And she hid her hands with many a glove
One night it went too far
And the knife would do much more than scar
Soon she crumpled to the floor
Glassy, empty eyes stared at the door
Gone was the girl that everybody thought they knew
Left alone, with no final "I love you"
Her body lying in a pool of red
Her dying heart, was finally dead.
