Another Lost Soul
She cries in the night
But smiles during the day
She claims that she is okay
But inside the monsters are tearing her apart
She tries to fight back
But finds herself in a losing the battle
She tries to hide the scars
But fails when someone asks what happened
She says she is going to a friend’s house
But instead she heads for the bridge
She wonders if anyone actually cared,
And whether she should take her life
But she pushes the thoughts aside
Thinking if anyone cared,
They would have already tried to stop her
She closes her eyes and jumps
But didn’t hear the footsteps running toward her, begging her to stop[/font]
