Here she lies

Topic: EmotionalPoetry

After you read it I do not want a million posts asking if I'm ok. If I need help. If I want to see a shrink. I am just fine. Ok? So don't let it worry you. =)

Here she lies

~*~*

Here she lies

A hallow shell

Only a ghost of the girl she used to be

Listlessly the days tick by

Meaninglessly

Empty

False smile frozen on

A face that shall be

And never was pretty

Don’t tell her lies

Don’t tell her she is what she knows she isn’t

Lying to her is like spitting on her truth

The little girl has died inside her

As the crone turns the double 4

She wonders why she bothers trying anymore

Endless Dr. visits are no longer her goal

She wants what is to be

To be

Not to prolong the enviable

Life monitored, planned, delegated

Is not for her

She wants her comfort

Her solitude

She has a right to that

Her life is not yours to govern

And she will take it away from you

And herself

Her suicide will be your punishment

If you try to make her change her ways

Hallow shell

Half heaven half hell

It is not always so dark

Sometimes silver starlight shimmers in her eyes

She thinks it all out

Her path, her destiny

She still has an inner glow

But she won’t show

Because it’s private and sacred

Every second either alone or with others are her treasures

That none can steal

She is like the cat she owns

Feline ish slinky and silent

Sly and elusive is she

Don’t try to understand her

Just accept her

As is

She is I

And I am she

I am just me
