Wild Flower

by Emma Carnage   Jun 17, 2005


I cried tonight
Harder than ever before
I don't know what came over me
But I just fell to the floor
Just all of a sudden it was just too much
I couldn't handle anymore

I don't know what brought it all on
But the tears burned down my face
Fell to the floor below
They seemed to be having a race
They reached the paper I write this on
They're the only thing pure in this place

Things have been going downhill lately
Perhaps I'll just leave for awhile tonight
I need something that will calm me down
And I can think of something that might
Besides the belt or the blade
I need to be engulfed in the black night

My tears have dried up now
But I really feel like I need to cry
I wish I had someone to talk to
I can just no longer sit and deny
I really do have depression
It's what caused me to almost die

My happiness just keeps fading away
I was once told that I'm like a wild flower
I was colorful and rare
That was when I still felt comfort's power
I'm not beautiful and free
Especially when I'm alone at this hour

I'll never be your wild flower
I'm simply a scared little girl
You'll come to see that more and more
As you watch my secrets unfurl
