Your Worst Nitemare
Alone and Standing on the Edge of the Cliff
Fighting back the tears.
Staring out into the night sky.
Wondering why, how . . .
Wondering who Iam, what I stand for.
Running alone down the street.
Tripping over loose stones and crying.
Wondering how I got here.
Why do I do these things?
Sitting alone, in the dark, at the end of an alleyway.
Realizing I'm worth more than this, but not caring.
Wondering why I don't care, why should I care, how can I care.
Who am I really?
Fighting the pain.
The pain of being victimized, of being bullied.
Wondering how to survive.
Wondering whether to let it go on or whether to stop being a victim.
Now she's sitting alone on the edge of a cliff.
She's listening to Linkin Park's "Bleed It Out."
Wondering whether to go on.
Wondering if it would be worth it to live, to survive.
She's standing on the edge, face to the wind.
The music is pounding. Her head is aching. Her heart is breaking.
Wondering whether to die.
Wondering whether to end it all, to commit suicide - to jump.
Falling . . . Screaming . . . Music pounding . . . She dies.
Sirens . . . Crying . . . Funeral . . . Burial . . . She's gone FOREVER.

Downward Spiral
All Alone, On Her Own
She lives.
Everyday she tries
To survive
On her own.
She believes.
She is being fed bullshit.
Everytime she talks
To them.
She cannot go back.
If she goes back,
Life will be worse
For everyone in her life.
She feels
She is better off
On her own.
All alone.
She tries
To be true
To herself
To do what is good for her.
She looks forward to the future.
She hopes that life will get better.
All she has to do
Is survive the next few years.
She dreams.
She tries to follow her heart.
She dares to live her dreams.
And accomplish her goals.

Hope
She sits
By the phone
Waiting
For him
To call.
She cries
At night
When he doesn't
Call.
She writes
Letters
To him
Hoping
He'll write
Back.

Late
It's late.
She's singing.
Waiting
For him.
He's late.
She's crying.
Waiting
For him.
She's late.
He's dying.
Waiting
For her.

It's Over

Out of Time
One day she runs,
She runs from the past,
The present, the future.
She can't face what she's become.
Some day she'll stop,
Stop running from her past,
Her present, her future.
She will face what she's become.
Today she hates,
She hates her past,
Her present, her future.
She hates what she's become.
Tomorrow she dies.
She will have a past,
No present, no future.
She won't face what she's become.
Yesterday she lived,
She lived in the past,
The present, the future.
She didn't face what she's become.
Last month she loved,
She loved her past,
Her present, her future.
She faced what she's become.
Next year she'll live,
Again in the past,
The present, the future.
She'll never face what she's become.
