She walks, delved in the darkness.
Blindly making her way towards the light,
She stumbles and struggles.
The hope draws near.

As she reaches the opening,
Figures linger in the distance.
Realization crosses her expression,
Outrage flickers within a pair of eyes.

An echoing rumble and a tremor in the earth,
A faint call of her name resonates softly.
She throws herself back into the darkness.
The entrance collaspes, the light dissipates.

A lonely soul, a broken heart,
The tears silently fall down porcelain cheeks.
Drowned in despair, reality slips away.
Loneliness lingers within the emptiness.

The empty darkness engulfs my weary body.
Tight lipped smiles, feigned laughs.
Tension bathes into stiff muscles,
A tired sigh resonates softly.

Silent screams, pain jabs into my mind.
Wavering eyes gleam in the darkness.
Lips painfully etch into a smile,
Hiding the glint gleaming within dark brown orbs.

Light flickers brightly,
Dissolving within a glossy ebony mist.
A glimmer of silver twinkles in the night,
Red paints the tiled floors.

The door creaks softly,
A gust of wind seeps through.
A statued form lingers in the doorway.
Drop by drop, a stream of tears begin to fall.

White bandages bound a pale wrist,
Silent sobs wrack in the night.
Arms embrace a troubled soul.
The silver blade abandoned, lies beside a trembling body.

Silent cries bellow in the night.
Unhealed scars, forgotten pain.
Bathed in unshed tears,
Anguish drowns my troubled soul.

Smiles that glittered like the stars,
Crushed beneath a broken world.
Laughter that rang like chiming bells,
Drowned in a river of misery.

Mocking expectations pry into my muddled mind,
Filling my world with endless thoughts.
Anxiety crashes onto my body,
Destroying an era of peace.

Eyes slide shut, silence prevails.
A single teardrop plummets onto the terrain.
Loneliness, agony, rage.
Forgotten as tears fall.

Unfathomable fear cursed my broken soul.
The poisonous love that lingered in the confines of my heart.
The love that once bloomed like a beautiful flower,
Just another curse that bleed into the scars.
  
A faltering reality, a shattered soul.
Torn, broken, regretful.
Laced beneath an emotional facade,
The barriers shattered as love sunk in.

Love lit up the pure darkness,
Lighting an endearing path.
Descending the tunnel of light,
Sorrow drowns beneath the heavy bliss.

In this moment of unconditional affection,
Gratitude and joy spreads into a pure smile.

She was my best friend,
and I miss her more than can be explained.
We used to be like one person,
but now everything has changed.
She didn't talk to me for days
and acted like everything was okay
right before she went away.
I had to block it out,
I can only take so much pain;
Be taken advantage of,
so I spent every day,
wondering if I'd see her again
before she left for L.A.
But it didn't happen,
it hasn't happened.
We grew so far apart.
When I take time to think about it,
it honestly breaks my heart.
We weren't always there for each other,
we had other things we had to do.
But when it all came down to it,
we always saw each other through.
Not talking about the serious,
just made each other laugh.
And we'd always joke about how much we ate
and that we were gonna be so fat.
The truth is, I miss the simple stuff;
Not really talking about life.
Just going through each day one at a time.
And taking life with a grain of salt,
tequila,
and lime.
