The sun slowly dies down to a crimson ember, bringing the endless night with it.
She stands on the edge of the cliff, hands restless in her pockets.
Winds like hounds after blood whips around her, stinging her face.
The ocean in front of her stretching for miles, the silent and deadly grace sending chills up her spine.
Standing there for what seems like hours, fixated only on the flow and ebb of the crashing waves beneath her feet.
Tears flow down her face, cold like shards of ice sliding from her eyes.
She gazes out at the unmoving sea and whispers to herself
"I dont know what I'm doing. I dont know where I went wrong.."
Seems no matter what she does she get's farther and farther from where she's needed.
Screaming only on the inside they only see what she wants them to see.
But sometimes she slips and they can see the torment in her eyes.
She trys so hard to please others, she forgets herself and ends up ignoring her dreams.
Her days spent bowing down to others, always agreeing no matter what's said.
Masking her fears in a facade of cheer, she moves through life numb.
Hiding behind her music she feels safe, she guards her heart from the cold and prying eyes.

I can see this as being really true for you. And all I want to do right now is to curl up on the couch next to you for awhile. I think sometimes that's all that's needed. I love you.
*sigh* Yeah, I told you it was emo lol.
