Her Hollow Cheeks

And Cracked Lips 

Still Forced Into A Smile.

Struggling To Show Everyone

That She's A Fighter That 

She Will Be All Right.

No One Bothered  

To Hold Her Close, 

To Tell Her,

That It's Okay Not To

Be Fine.

She, She Breathed Through Her Life

As If It Were A Battlefield,

And Wished That One Day She Would Live,

And Not Just Survive.
