Blank dried up eyes

As she watches the crowd walk by,
Not suprised as the push and shove their way through.
Ignoring the bruises and cuts,
That she hides.

She watches the couple from a distance,
Holding back her tears.
The once full of life,
Has become nothing more then a void.
She's cried enough tears,
For nothing.

Sitting alone ignoring the lecture,
Resting her head on the cold table.
Goosebumps appear on her arms,
Biting her lower lip.

Couldn't sleep again,
As the haunting images won't leave.
She can't cry,
Not even a single drop.
Bags under her eyes,
As another restless night.
Knowing she can't cry herself to sleep,
Not anymore.

Her eyes use to shimmer with the sunlight,
But now she lives with the night.
The sparkle that use to be the stars,
Is now just abyss.

No one cared to help her,
Nor noticed what she was going through.
Everyone just left her,
Broken and destroyed.
