Where Misery Lies


You cover up your morning breath
With bottled water and cigarettes
You cover up your wrongs by lying
And every mistake –you’re justifying
You cover up your joys and cheers
With last night’s mascara running with tears
Making your tangled hair
Stick to your face so fare
You stay inside-hidden from the world
A lonely, unseen, invisible girl
You can’t convince me that you’re happy
By killing yourself oh so slowly
And shortening your flawless life span
By contracting any disease that you can
Your weight plunges from the drugs you’re using
You rarely eat which adds to the losing
You need professional help
But you say you can help yourself
But your way of help is holding your breath
You’re running or sprinting your way towards death
You lost all hope in your miserable state
But you tell me you’re happy with a smile on your face
