Her only escape

The girl I used to see starring back at me
has slowly disappeared over the years
now all I see is someone with a broken heart
just trying to survive the life she lives
everyday she wears a face thats not her own
covering up all the pain so no one knows
long shirts and sweaters to cover up the scars
not letting anyone close enough to be able to catch on
when left alone all the thoughts overwhelm her heart
shes drowning in a ocean of her own tears
black stains left on her eyes from the tears left behind
the tears that will never be washed away
shes stuck in a tunnel with only one way out
at the end lays a blade thats engraved with her name
this time she wont survive the pain is much to great
the knife will soon be stained with her beautiful blood
picking up the knife she engraves a name in her arm
so forever more they will know she died for love
the pain and the sorrow runs out of her heart and on to the bed
sheâ??s dieing slowly in her own blood of love
to her this was her only escape
because she no longer loved to live
