Alone and in the dark
On the cold and hardened ground
Tears of quiet sobbing
The world's only sound.
Breath catches in her chest
As she's trying not to scream
No sense is to be made
At what is happening.
The pounding in her head
The gasping chokes for air
The knot down in her stomach
The hands clenched in her hair.
And within her heart a shatter
Within her heart a tear
Within her heart a sadness
That nothing can repair.
Lying on the floor
Unable to go on
She cries the silent tears
Of heartbreak's lowly song.
