There they go cascading down her subtle skin
Haunting whispers that crumble her away from within
She stays silent sniffling in the dark
A contrast to the feigned bright smile she wore,stark.

Everyday they go cascading down her subtle skin
Her little failures crumbling down her soul from within
And never did she utter a word..
Cause for her quivering heart, showing weakness was a sin.

She lies in the dark
Her sniffles like a whisper
Her eyes lost their spark
The only console, the silken sheets and pillows.. catching her tears in the dark
As her heart slowly rips apart....
