True Story

~~True Story~~

It's time to go now, follow me
Walking slowly, step by step down the long corridor
Thoughts rushing around like a rapid whirlpool
Heart thumping wildly against her chest
How did I ever end up here?

Security guards and police officers walking beside her
She feels their ever watchful eyes drumming into her
She woke up this morning not knowing what the day was to behold
Wishing she could turn back time
How did I ever end up here?

Her 16 years of life being played in her head as a movie on fast forward
Flash backs from the past, present and foreseen future entwined into one
She feels a single tear slide down her cheek
She is scared and all alone
How did I ever end up here?

The past few hours had been a blur of confusion
Trapped and withheld in her own body
Looking at the walls around her plastered with colorful and creative pictures
They look so close yet so far
How did I ever end up here?

Her steps slowing down, she is almost there
There's no way of getting out of this
She looks up at the bold writing above the big blue doors
Welcome to the children's psychatric ward
How did I ever end up here?
