Echoes

There she lay
crumpled
in a heap

Sobbing in the corner.

Motionless, she cries.
Pain-filled screams

flooding
from her mouth
notifying the world of her
pain.

Her cries
echo
against the walls
and she realises

she is alone,
no one cares.

Again she
cries out
desperate

for an answer.
Still she hears

nothing.
Her cries simply
rebound and
echo once more.

To the ground
she falls, her
tears of
betrayal

falling fast,
smile
disappearing
as she
falls

into an
endless darkness.
