Breathe no more

She stands with her back to the wind,
A broken soul,
And not one sin.
Words screaming through her head are clear,
And none can silence the awful din.

Among her eyes there once was fear.
Of rejection,
It was clear.
Now her eyes have lost the shine,
None knew that she was drawing near.

Where once she slept upon the night,
She’s lost, it seems,
Her will to dream.
Emptiness has consumed her mind.
Another one now lost in time.

She lies with her back on the ground,
A starry sky,
And not one cloud.
While the mockingbirds will wail in grief,
She’ll use their song to fall asleep.
