Sun fades to the moon,
Crickets are chirping goodbye...
I was consumed,
By a life I chose...
I just don't understand why.
It doesn't seem this could be happening to me...
A chill within my soul,
Awakens in my deep...
A boy I know sits next to me,
Though he's there I never see...
Birth,
Growth...
Infinite pain,
Endless shame...
Memories too painful to call upon,
Wrapped in my own scarf of guilt...
Silent whispers rattling leaves,
An invisible force, shaking trees...
"Hi!, I say,
What's your name?"...
I'm falling apart,
Trying to breathe...
I'm reaching out,
Asking for help...
