Page 6 // poem #4

There is a girl sitting at the edge of a bed. Her dark brown hair a fuzzy mess, her clothes old and worn out- a makeshift form of pajamas.

She stares out a window in front of her. The blinds creating ray bands over her face. The yellow strip illuminating her dark eyes into a honey gold.

Her body was slumped, shoulders falling forward as if tired of holding something up. Her eyes shine but her face falls flat.

There is a dark pit in the middle of the honey, slowly growing, consuming the light. If you look into that dark pit you would see another girl.

There is a girl curled up in a corner, stifling tears. No light reaches this girl. Her hair is matted, the room is grey and cold. Her clothes out dated.

In that room, there is a girl lost and neglected.

In this room, there is a girl tired of fighting.
