Staring at death right in face. I never would have imagined what it feels like to loose everything. I never thought I would know what empty space felt like. I never thought it would end up being me. The girl with everything figured out now has dark thoughts. Is always haunted by thoughts and feeling nothing. I never thought I wouldn't be able to breathe, but it feels as if life is suffocating me. So I drink. I drink to fill the void. But it never seems to leave me alone. There's no one to turn to except the monsters in my head. Burning every bridge. So I stand on the opposite side and watch them go up in flames. I stand there in hopes that maybe someone will hear my cries. But if a depressed girl screams and everyone is around to hear it, Did she really scream at all? -a.
