She just wants to disappear

She wishes that everybody else would just go away.

A girl, terrified of confrontation,

In a world where everyone seems better than her.

She doesn’t say a word, not even to herself.

She doesn’t eat, in fear that she’ll be judged.

She hides her face, for she thinks it’s imperfect.

The figure in her mirror,

Stares back hard.

“You’re not enough.”

She begins to fade.

“They don’t want you.”

She continues to fade.

Invisible scars on invisible arms,

The marks of shame seen by nobody.

Sunken eyes, now swallowed by insomnia.

There hasn’t been a second,

To feel anything

The sun now shimmered through her absent figure,

Coating her ghostly remnants in light.

Her soul, now ascending through the golden hue.

Her soul,

                  Now transparent.

                                                  Fading

                                                               And fading

                                                                                   And fading

                                                                                                       Into nothingness.
