Ripping of skin
Tearing of flesh
Sighs of relief
No thought to consequence
Pain fills her to the brim
Each and every day
Bloody tears shed each night
To take it away
No one cares to see her
No one cares to notice
She is the one who walks alone
Life without meaning to her
Death full of promises
Her soul cries for help
But none
Not even her
Can hear the cries of agony
