Inspired

Those who are ignored shortly disappear.

she sits alone
a mask of cheerfulness
a heart of heavy lead
the world sees her perfect
sadness within not seen
hope clings desperately
no one knows
the great big box of wood
covers her no one knows
in her heart lies dread
that covers this soul
scared to let anyone in a star
glints in the distance in her head
the wood changes as life grows
to depression and agony
abused in her life the star
no longer shines bright
suddenly the wood grows luster
no one sees it under the dirt
no one knows she is dead
