Lost

She was once so damn afraid

of who she had become

these realizations shattered her

and made her brain go numb.

The person that she looked at

was merely just a mask

a ghost both dark and empty

lost within her past.

Not knowing where to turn to

afraid that she'd be seen

the world that she had come to know

was just to cold and mean.

The world had changed along with her

and nothing was the same

a feeling welled inside of her

she couldn't seem to name.

The world has lost a special thing

within this troubled youth

who met her great demise

when she finally faced the truth.

wow! this is so amazingly true, at this very moment, I couldn't be more true to say I feel like the poem was written by an innner soul of somewhat....it seems so familiar and sounds so truthful, it literally hurts. It's touchy, it's emotional, and quite lovely. Yeah at some point in life, we feel that way....aint that just amazing?
