18: She speaks without using words


She picks up her own broken pieces and pieces herself together.

She knows no one will do it for her if she doesn't do it by herself.

She expresses herself through her thoughts, but never does anyone hear her say them.

She stays silent as she hears people utter meaningless things,

while her tongue is tempted to add to that chain of meaningless things just 

because she wants to belong,

she wants to be accepted, but she knows she can never,

so she stays quiet as her thoughts pile in her head.

She wipes her own tears away.

She tells herself, to stay strong, but she knows she's barely holding on.

She's clinging onto an almost invincible string, that's about to break,

but she still holds on.

Because she knows, that's all she can do. To hold onto whatever she finds in arms width.

She replays those fond memories, over and over again. 

She hits replay and allows her thoughts to engulf her. She becomes a slave to her own 

memories. Clinging onto, what once was, but now isn't anymore.

She tells herself,  I'll let those memories go, but she just can't help, but hold onto.

Time slips through her fingers like sand, she closes her hands trying to capture what time 

she has left, but before she knows it, she has no time left.

And once again, she's left with nothing to hold.

Wrapping her arms around herself, she tries to comfort herself, but her tears just keep falling

like a sink that wasn't properly closed, her feelings spill out, but the only thing that never seems

 to come out, is the words she wishes to say. 

She was scared of what people would think, she was scared of how they would react, so she 

kept silent and as she did, the sadness within her only grew more.

But you would never hear her, use her own voice to call out for help.

She used her eyes to drain her pain,

she used her happy memories to suppress the pain,

she used her pretend smile to face people who came,

she used her imagination to escape,

but you would never see the agony in her face.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

 I thought I would do something different for this update, I felt like writing something about the girl after all, the 'Heart' & the 'Mind' are always talking about her, so I thought why not. I hope you enjoyed this and I'm thinking about maybe, making a second part to this with more about her, but that's just a thought. I might, still not sure, but I hope you have a splendid day and a great life. Thank you for reading. Comments and votes are appreciated~
