the moon and the stars shine down

illuminating the night

and a girl sits awake

wanting to give up this fight


a tear rolls down her face

the voices echoing

loud and clear

reverberating in the empty space


the moon and the stars

glitter brightly in the sky

rays of hope as

she runs her finger across her scars


she sets down the note

bringing the noose around her neck

she closes her eyes

and tightens the rope


"im not coming back

I'm leaving today

you'll never notice I'm gone

and that i know is a fact"


"you say all these things

breaking people down

but have you ever thought

of the pain that brings"


"so when you hear the news

that I'm never coming back

know that the life i had

was one id never choose"


"the moon and the stars

were what i adored

yet those beams of light

are what set me apart"


"i was considered a freak

and you cast me out

telling me things

i always believed"


"i forgive you all

those who caused me pain

but it was your horrible decision

that became your downfall"


the moon and the stars are hidden away

and as clouds cover the sky

the rain sun begins to rise

signaling the dawn of a new day


one girls mouth hangs ajar

as she hears the heart wrenching news

 that it was her that caused the death of the girl

who loved the moon and the stars
