Her Mascara Runs, by I'm The Girl That Holds Everything Inside
|
With eyes closed
Tears stream down her face
Her body feels numb
She walks at a slow steady pace
Her mascara has run
Down her pale cheeks
Creeping down to her chin
In dark black streaks
Her steps are getting slower
She cant go on for much more
Her feet feel heavy
If she could just make it to the door
She's so close
Yet so far away
Times running out
Her last step makes her sway
Shes losing her balance
She falls to the floor
This is just to much
She cant take it any more
What is she holding on to
And more importantly why?
Her face screams of pain
And all she can do is cry
Its always going to be like this
She'll always be sad
But she's still fighting
For all that she had
She wont give up
she tells herself to stay strong
But thats because she cant see
That what she wants is wrong
It always was
From the very start
She was just blinded
By thinking with her heart

I was scared to read this one after "So Unsure" LOL! I about cried @ the last one, but this one.... sounds like something I'd write. The 3rd person view really works with this one. It seems like it can reassure anyone that there's always hope!! |
