Raindrops distort my once transparent window like

Tears dripping down a porcelain, innocent face

Silent, delicate, fluent

The clouds are weeping

Over the sun departing

Same with that of this girl

With radiant warmth gone

It’s hard to move on

Lost the glint in her chestnut eyes

That once shone brighter than stars in the sky

Purple inflated bags underneath

Lips sealed, hidden teeth

She can’t sing a single tune

She can barely move out of bed

Thoughts swarming around in her head

A dark, dreary shadow

She fades in comparison to what she used to be

Because she isn’t happy

A heart that beats for no one

Arms that hug no one

Feet that dance with no one

Even though she is rich with money

She feels empty

Cash means nothing

When you still cling

To the darkness within
