She Struggles

She Struggles

-12 February 2006-

She struggles with it all...
She struggles with
the thoughts of interconnections
And of how she feels
so detached and devoid
of every emotion
Of how she struggles with
the thoughts of being abnormal
How her parents acknowledge her,
yet won't except the fact
That she's different and that's that.
They want her to change,
who's she's finally comfortable with
And she's won't opt for that decision
So she struggles with it
She struggles with it all
She’s reached for that blade so many times
And as the blood flows she cries and asks why
She doesn't want to give in to that temptation
Her friends see something is wrong
But don't know what to do, or how to help
They acknowledge her pain
But fear to intervene
For she is lost to them, and is no longer seen
She wishes she were seen
Or for someone to intervene....
