you do not know her name
even so it would bring her little fame
not when they suffocated her voice
her soul, her heart, her ability to rejoice
until she forgot who she was as a whole
all alone on those nights as black as coal
till she found this world unbearable
and that invisible mask unwearable
and so she left this world, just like she came
quiet and still, a blown out flame
