Through shadow's flight And loss of faith She sits alone And falls from grace
On the window sill She hangs her dreams Let the sun shine through them Like distant memories
With shadow's life awakens The final, darkest call She sits in pain, alone Through life, she slowly falls
And her dreams? Well they just die In the soft lit day And she sits and she sighs Without anything to say
Let sun shine through them Like painted, stained art Flitter through and flicker soft Tear through torn heart
You let her cry Tears fall from her face As she sits on her window sill A silent disgrace
The girl is lonely The girl has done no wrong The girl wishes to die She wants to belong....
And then one day The girl is no more Her flittered, hung up dreams Twirling in the light. Basking in tear-stained glass She is gone And no one cares, But eventually they seek And when they do find, Then they speak
"Oh goodness she is dead!" "But why oh why? She was my friend?"
Alas but sweet lies are like sweet honey when she dies, And each passerby has something to say: "Her death was such a surprise!"
Ah but such sweet, neatly wrapped lies Are so abundant now:
"And if she was only here!"
Hypocrites hide behind unfeeling tears.
And through the untruths Their claims of friendships fall through, When the funeral holds no one But a solitary priest Who lays a rose At the stone
The grave is grey and cheap And the sun is hidden The burial is lone and forgotten The solitary rose died long ago And the harsh wind is cold And the girl that once was: Quiet and alone in life Is so too, the same in death And on her grave There is but one thing said:
"Here lies the girl on the window sill. A rose never to be forgotten, Found alone in her bed Though, at first, No one noticed she was dead"
Sweet lies of the window sill girl Who just needed somebody to be there. Silly window sill girl,
No one ever did care.

How very sad that anyone would have to live an empty solitary life like that. Sickly funny how the accolades come after they don't have to actually deal with her. She is not alone or lacking anything in Heaven. That is where happiness is for those that never knew it on earth.

A truly heartbreaking write. However, it's beautifully written. |
