My hands shake, my breath wobbles,
I can't see, I can't breathe,
I feel the tears
Streaming down my cheeks.
I want to escape,
I want to disappear,
I want to fade away,
I can no longer be here.
I can't forget the words I heard,
I can't forget the sad resemblance.
I pray in my heart that it's not true,
But there was never true deniance.
I try to silently slip away,
Meld in with the darkness;
If not for the little bell on my door,
They wouldn't have heard my presence.
