She failed to see the truth
cold hands touching her,
over and over again, as
dreams changed into nightmares.
Scratching her body, to make
it look like her scarred soul.
Drowning in dangerous thoughts
as she planned her own burial.
He tried to help her,
but she couldn't accept,
for she believed she had to
save herself, if saved she would ever be.
Falling apart, pieces dropped like rain
as she was slowly destroyed
in the years that passed...
She was lost to herself.
