Woke up with a nightmare,
shaken and broken,
an empty soul,
searching for an escape.

All she heard was,
raindrops on the roof,
the same way her tears
were falling down.

She looked into the dark,
where shadows danced,
as if they mocked,
the silent cries she made.

The voices that never leave,
she heard them all,
singing softly to her,
those same old whispers.

The red drops,
glistening on her arms,
told a sorrowful story,
that no one heard.

Once a happy soul,
now left a broken shell,
a smile on her face,
facade she wore for too long.

Hollow breaths left her lips,
as she took,
one last glance--
a farewell to the world.

A soul that longed for life,
departed with a pained smile,
meant to bloom,
like a beautiful rose,
but faded away
as a withering leaf....

Longed for spring,
but lived in winter too long,
Once a summer's warmth,
now fading like autumn.
