She Wants...


She wants to die 
And no one knows why
She wants to cry
But her eyes remain dry

She's fighting for her life
While grasping a knife

She's so close to caving in
She just might let the feeling win

She's slowly losing her identity
Even starting to lose her serenity

In a world so cold 
She can't keep her composure,  she's losing control .

She's fading into the abyss 
A forgotten memory no one will reminisce

She no longer exists 
Not knowing she'll be missed

Unaware ,of the fact that people do care 
She suffered all alone , forced to face the world on her own.
