Lonely Heart

Behind pretty smiles
and behind pretty eyes,
she carries her trials,
and on no one she relies.
All alone in her heart.
What else can fall apart?
Darkness overhead looming,
won’t stop until it’s consuming.
Her heart it starts to infest.
Her mind put to the test.
In her problems she is wading,
and the shore is quickly fading.
She looks up to the sky,
if you’re up there God, why?
Why am I all alone,
stuck in this worlds tidal zone.
