that girl

here's the story of a girl who had everything, yet had nothing. apathy was her friend and quiet was the way. when she spoke, people heard, but they didn't understand. they'd laugh, she'd swear to never talk again. this is the story of a death. the death of silence and words. of meanings and laughter. slowly and softly into the ground. the words surround her body. her friend does not shed a tear. lets out a sigh of relief and walks away. her dead eyes look better closed. she is better off unknown. her red lips look better closed. she is better off alone.
