Mar 2014
She was sitting by the window and looking out.
Dark thoughts haunted her but never came out her mouth.
Instead they rolled down her cheek like pearls
She could see the future of her life in curls.

The world called her stupid and nobody saw her talent.
When she decided to speak they told her to be silent.
She wanted to spread her wings and fly
But every time she tried,they made  her cry.


She often asked herself,does she live or just survive?
Why did she need anyone to tell her she was alive?
She hid her sadness behind that smile.
In the end she wrote 'I quit' on that tile.


She was beautiful both inside out
When the world told her to be silent she should have made a shout
She feared the world,not death
Don't give up just yet,take one last breath?

Nobody remembered her nobody wished to see her again.
They said 'life goes on,why be in pain?'
The world was cruel,the world is cruel.
Or maybe they're just all fools.
