What has happened to my heart?
It’s cold and empty now, it seems.
And yet, somehow it’s torn apart,
As everything within me screams.

I don’t want to live this way,
Numb to the present, upset by the past.
How long will this depression stay?
I don’t think my mind will last.

Sometimes I think I see hope,
But it’s just a glimpse of its last breath,
Struggling to escape from here
Before it to, succumbs to death.

Where is she, the one who cries,
Laughs, and loves, and cares for others?
She is the only one that tries
To end this hopelessness that smothers.
