Story of a Girl

The story of a girl
I dont know where to begin
I guess the best place to start
Is where its all ending
Shes laying on her bed
Staring blankly at the wall
sick of life
tired of it all
her breaths are heavy
her body weak
Her eyes wont stay open
she cannot speak
thinking hard
she goes back to the past
leaving reality
she begins to breathe fast
she goes to her childhood
when life was great
she was young and nieve
life had no debate
next came year seven
when life started getting rough
the time of her first surgery
things began to get tough
year twelve came to mind
with surgery number two
this time was upsetting as well
but, of course, nothing new
next came the sequence
of the next few years
where five surgeries came
along with new fears
with the surgeries came
a loss of breath
because of the memory
where surgery almost caused death
her lungs collapsed
and she became ill
unable to breath
She lost hope and will
these surgeries ruined her
and made her weak
they made her depressed
and made life so bleak
If these hospital visits weren't enough
Her mind took her once more
to when she was diagnosed wth diabetes
she couldnt take this anymore
she cant take the thoughts
and cant seem to accept
that even to the inside of her
she is a total reject
She cant stand her dependency
To meds to survive
she hates to know the truth
that they're the only reason she's alive
ripping her mind away
she escapes to a new memory
of when her and her best friend
were as close as could be
smiling finally
she found a good thought
but soon it left
no matter how much she fought
she lost that smile
as quick as it came
when she saw her "best friend"
now that times arent the same
she saw her choosing her boyfriend
over her friend
not once, but twice
and then the friendships end
pulling away again
she fell out of dream
returning to reality
things felt worse it seemed
starting to cry
she closes her eyes
turning over, waiting
she finally dies
now we're back where we started
thats the story of her life
because of all the pain and depression
she decided to end her life
