BLEEDING OUT

Mangled beyond recognition
Broken beyond repair
No way to stop the pain
No one seems to care.

An empty void, madness.
Spiraling out of control
Crying out for a lifeline​
Reaching out, a hand to hold.

Alone, stricken with blame
A blank cold stare
Abandoned and heartbroken
Not one emotion spared.

Gasping for air, she struggles
Trying to find a reason
A simple explanation
A way to stop the bleeding.
