Day after day I endured the pain
Night after night it got tucked away
To them I was only a girl happy and light
To myself I was nothing but a girl to tired to fight
“They wouldn’t get it” I said to myself
They’ve never had to feel the pain that I’ve felt
Now looking back I honestly wish
I had a friend to tell, to reminisce
On the times when I was happy and free
Before that day I was bound with lock and key
For now I am worse off than ever before
Now I can’t function, I struggle more and more
Slowly the light fades farther away from me
I’m left in the dark, someone hear my plea..
