Only one wish

by lauren   Jul 20, 2006


My time is getting shorter,
My breath is running out of air,
My heart has stopped beating
My eyes no longer stare.

My body is motionless,
My brain no longer thinks
My ears no longer listen
My eyes no longer blink.

A troubled little girl,
No more feelings to embrace
Has only one wish tonight
Which is to leave this place.

To leave all the hatred,
The coldness and depression,
To leave the unhappiness
And the friendly cutting obsession.

Depression fulfills her mind,
Leave her there in fright,
She goes through this every time
She goes to bed at night.

She goes to sleep at night
And dreams for the best,
She’ll wake up in a nightmare,
Her life is such a mess.

Her father has gone,
He disappeared without a trace,
Her mother has turned to drinking
There’s nothing to embrace.

Her sister committed suicide,
A year ago today,
Her sister did it in her room
Which is where she wishes to lay.

So tonight the young girl,
12 years old with deep blue eyes,
Joins her sister and daddy,
Through the event of her demise.
