Solitude

She sits

Barely clothed, nearly nude

Only covered by the dark shroud of solitude

She sighs

Thinking of burning herself down

Becoming something anew

So lost in the world and her emotions

She doesnt know what to do

But sit and pray

Waiting for change in her life situations

A cleansing of her mind and soul

Release from complications

A single tear slides down her face

Only a prelude to the river she cries for her sorrows

So engulfed in yesterday

She cant even look forward to tomorrow

Shes broken inside

And no one even sees

That this girl with her broken world

Is hurting constantly

They always see her smile and laugh

Not a glimpse of her dark side

Which is beginning to take over completely

And slowly kill her inside

The only way to stop the pain

Is to do what she has to do

Swallow her pride and look inside

And become renewed in her solitude
