TRAPPED IN HER OWN SOUL,
SHE WAS DROWNING DEEP,
WHILE THE UNIVERSE OFFERED HER ALL, THE DESIRE TO LIVE WAS GONE FOR LONG.
SHE PORTRAYED A FORMIDABLE PUBLIC FACADE,
MASKING THE TURBULENCE OF EMOTIONS WITHIN HER.
MAYBE SHE REALIZED SHE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM,
MAYBE SHE KNEW THE WORST WAS YET TO COME,
MAYBE SHE KNEW THE END WAS NEAR.
SHE CRAVED FOR HER LOST SELF,
THE UNFEIGNED SMILES SHE ONCE ADORNED.
SHE TRIED TO BREAK THE SHACKLES OF HER OWN DEMONS,
BUT FAILURE COVERED HER UP LIKE AN ARMOUR.
NOW SHE SLIPPED AWAY PEACEFULLY,
FOR SHE KNEW LIFE WOULD GO ON EVEN WITHOUT HER PRESENCE.
