A cry for help, a blackened tear
A worried friend, facing fears
Innocence so rudely rushed
A broken heart, alone and crushed
A time for peace, but she’s at war
Can’t help it, but she feels alone
One on one, she fights herself
The fights not over ‘til one finds death
The cracks grow wider as she falls through
Everyone is useless, there is nothing left to do
Pray and hope that she’s alright
Only love should win this fight
Hate is bigger and stronger though
She is her selves own worst foe
It’s not her fault she tried so hard
Succumbed to the blade, arm left scarred
Worried friends on her left and her right
The pain grows worse during the night
Deeper and deeper and deeper she falls
She hits the bottom and begins to crawl
She sees the light and finds the end
Never will she have to fight the battle of loneliness again
Jacqueline
My head fell back hitting the bathroom wall with a thud. I loved the feeling that came over me as an after effect. It was my own personal high. I exhaled loudly, my eyes still closed; reveling in the light headed feeling.
Even though I was emancipated at fifteen, and had been living on my own ever since, my routine had never wavered. Although it was the one thing I looked forward to most days, it was also something I was ashamed of.
I knew if I ever wanted to give myself fully to someone they would be entitled to know. That’s why I kept everyone at an arm’s length away.
Parker Grant was the only other human being on this earth I had trusted enough to contemplate telling…but after he chose Madalynne, I saw no reason.
My entire life I had never felt worthy of love, yet found myself seeking it out due to my father’s absence in my life and my drug addicted mother.
When I was seven years old my teacher Mrs. Edelson called Child Protective Services on my mother. She had forgotten to pick me up after school. I’m not talking late, I’m talking full on no call, no show. Who forgets to pick up their own child?
My father dipped out not too long after that; it all becoming too much for him. I heard from one of my mother’s rants that he ended up somewhere in Mexico.
