Runaway

Mentally disturbed,
couldn't find her place in this world.
Now she's missing again.
It happened before,
only longer this time.
It's been 4 weeks now,
and still, there's no sign.
Some assume death,
She was tortured through life.
Never put up a fight.
Always the different one,
But her life now...alone.
She died a week ago,
and no one had known.
She felt no one cared,
that nobody was, really there.
hopelessly pushed out,
she couldn't escape.
Left alone to die,
In her life full of hate.
She died last week again.
