Dressed in black

by kevin Boundy AKA the ghost   Dec 2, 2008


She feels tied down
By the constant judging stares
She whispers to herself
No one really cares

The sleeves hide the scars
The shadows hide her tears
People say things just happen
But this has been going on for years

Demons surround her
Haunting thoughts of her past
She keeps trying to hold on
But which day will be her last

But she's stronger then all of us
She will choose the end of her track
Underneath shes just like us
She's just dressed in black

    Its a pity how people judge us by the color
    of our clothes and what we do etc instead of seeing us has a person. A simple write which
    speaks a lot..good one!
