Part 1

She walked away from it, not wanting to look back.
Tears in her eyes, over her face a disguise, she didn’t dare turn around.
Ignorance is bliss, they said
so she took those words and ran with them.
She knew….
she thought….
she told herself…
she had no fighting chance to win.
The battle she fought was clearly lost
her life, her heart, one big, lost cause.
The victor wasn’t she, so her head she let fall.

It wasn’t as easy as she thought it would be
being alone in the world
a barren sight to see.
She did with it what she could. Consuming her time with something
anything
to fill the hole inside of her.
The hole was never filled, so she lost hope.

Her blood runs deep in her veins
as she cries out
every night
looking for an answer.
“Can you hear me?!"
The silence cuts her so deep
leaves her bleeding.

Tears in her eyes, as she hides behind a disguise
She walked away from it, not daring to turn back.
