Her Last Words

Just an average girl,

She always wore a smile

She was cheerful and happy for a short while

Now she's older 

Things are getting colder

Life's not what she though

She wished someone had told her

She told you she was down, 

You let it slip by

So from then on she kept it on the inside

She told herself she was alright

But she was telling white lies

Can't you tell

Look at her dull eyes

Tried to stop herself from crying almost every night

But she knew there was no chance of feeling alright

Summer came by 

All she wore was long sleeves

"Cause those cuts on her wrists were bleeding through

You see

She knew she was depressed

Didn't want to admit it

Didn't think she fit in

Everyone seemed to miss it

She carried on like a soldier with a battle wound

Bleeding out from every cut her body consumed

She had no friends at school

All alone she sat

And if someone were to notice

She would blame the cat

But those cuts on her wrist

They were no mistake 

But no one cared enough to save her from this self hate

Things were going down, 

Never really up

And here she is now

Stuck in this stupid rut

She knew exactly what she had to do next

Just stand on that chair

And tie the rope around her neck

She wrote a letter with her hands shaking wild

"Look at me now, are you proud of your precious child?"

But she knew that her parents weren't the one's to blame

It was the world that should bow down it's head in shame

She stood up on the chair and looked out at the moon

Just don't think

It'll all be over soon

The chair fell down as she took her final breath

It's all over, all gone

Now she's greeting death

Her mum walks in 

She falls down to the floor

And now nothing can take back what she just saw

The little girl that she raised is just hanging there

Her body's pale and her face violently bare

She sees the note and unfolds it with care

All she does is stare

"How can this be fair?"

She starts reading as the tears roll down her face

"I'm sorry mum

But this world is just not my place

I've tried for so long to fix this and fit in

I've come to realize this world's full of sin

There's nothing for me here 

I'm just a waste of space

I've got no reason to stay here with this awful race

It's a disgrace

I was misplaced

Born in the wrong time

And in the wrong place

It's okay though

'Cause you'll see me soon

You'll know when your time has come

Just look at the moon

As it shines bright

Throughout the night

And remember everyone's facing their own fight

But I can't deal with the pain

I'm not a fighter

You'll make it through the night 

Just hug your pillow tighter

So let the world know that I died in vain

'Cause the world around me is the one to blame

And I know in a year you'll forget I'm gone 

'Cause I'm not really something to be dwelled on

That's what they use to tell me,

All those kids at school

So I'm going by the law

Majority rules

My presence on this earth is not needed any longer

And if anything I hope this makes you stronger

You're the best friend that I ever had 

Such a shame I had to make you so very sad

Just remember that you meant everything to me

And to my heart you're the only one that held the key

Now it's time to go

I'm running out  of space to write

And yes I lost my fight

But please just hold on tight

I'm watching over you from the clouds above

And sending down the purest and whitest dove

To watch over you and be my helpful eye

So this is it world

Goodbye"
