Such a shame

She was seared by pain
so badly hurt
but nobody noticed
she held it all deep within,
because she had given up on trusting
she was scarred she was broken,
she felt as her life was just a token
to be used abused and ridiculed everyday,
she was crying,
and brokenhearted,
she was crippled,
by the love inside her,
which now tore her apart,
felt she should have seen it from the start
but she was vulnerable,
and she was lonely,
just like she is again right now,
she wondered how
she could have let this person destroy her,
how could she have been so blind
that she could not see
the anguish and the sorrow that was yet to be,
the heartache and betrayal,
were not a dream,
she realised they would be her reality.
So now she is finished with the game
no longer wants to play,
she finished the game
and she let her life just slip away
and there was no one there to help her,
as she took an overdose to help her ease the pain
and dreamed of sleeping it all away,
for tonight and all eternity
it’s such a shame,
how deadly for some people is the game,
especially as they did not want to play
it’s such a shame.
