There is this girl
Her life is a mess.
Her father is the one to blame
for all the hurt & shame.
He is every reason she cries,
wishing she would just die.
Life's not easy, only gets harder.
He is the reason she doesn't want to be alive.
Day & night she wants to end her life,
let go & just say goodbye.
The only reason she is still here,
is because the one person she can trust
holds her together, makes her believe there
is actually something to hold onto.
She's always telling her not to give up,
& not to say goodbye.
The one person she trusts & looks up to
is the one she wakes up to each morning & the reflection looking back at her in the bathroom mirror.
Herself, screaming not to let go,
while screaming for something more,
someone else to be there other than herself
screaming to hold onto what she has left before it's too late.
She looks around, & sees nothing left.
Questions herself, asks what's the point?
I'm screaming to ears that refuse to listen & hear.
