She's waiting.

As a child, she was abused.
As an adult, she was used.
As a mother, she was great,
but loneliness, she can no longer take.

She sits in her room now.
She blocks everyone out.
Inside she screams.
She's feeling self doubt.

She tries to pick her self back up.
She tries to get on her feet.
Except when she thinks about it,
all she can do is weep.

Now the time has come.
She wants to take her life.
She don't know how to do it,
with a gun or a knife.

She's hearing voices in her head.
Which one should she listen to.
The one that says do it?
Or the one that says, you'll make it through?

So she closes her eyes.
Waiting for someone to expose her.
and she sits in her room,
silently she waits for closure.
