What is life?

Seeing it all crumble

Right before my eyes...

Could it have been different? I wonder...


The cold judging looks,

The cruel laughters,

Pierce my heart,

And pound against my chest


Could it all be less criticizing?

And a lot less mundane?

The anxiety it triggers

Keeps causing me pain


The stares of disbelief,

The pitiful shake of head

Any more agonizing,

And I might choose not to tread


All they see is a polite and innocent girl,

No one sees the darker picture.

I lock the door, I can't anymore

This is the end of it all.
