Saved You
Just the average human
Always wearing a smile
You were happy and cheerful
Well, at least for a while
You tell yourself your fine
But it's clear you're telling lies
It's plain as day to see
The pain behind your eyes
You stare into the mirror
And feel yourself disappear
The reflections twists and turns
Morphs into your biggest fear
You cannot stand this emptiness
And you know what must come next
As you put pen to paper
You cry as you scan the text
And now it's all over,
As you take your final breath
All alone but not scared
As you're greeted by death
You won't be the first
And you won't be the last
To end their long term suffering
Haunted and lost in their past
But you were not alone
Locked up on the inside
If you'd spoken they'd have known
And saved you from suicide
