on the verge of midnight,

she is smiling,

laughing,

telling her parents goodnight.

 

on the verge of 1 am,

she doesn’t feel alright,

telling herself that she’ll be okay.

 

on the verge of 2 am,

she is wishing for an escape,

confessing that she’s lost herself.

 

on the verge of 3 am,

she is writing,

short lines of bittersweet memories,

and the tragic notion that she is not needed here anymore.

 

on the verge of 4 am,

she is crying her eyes out,

finding this strange,

addicted love for a

not-so-harmless object.

 

on the verge of 5 am,

she is screaming into her pillow,

telling herself how worthless,

how useless-

she is on this earth.

 

and on the verge of 6 am,

her parents are screaming.

they had found their daughter-

hanging lifelessly from the ceiling fan.
