She smiled softly

She smiled softly but this time it was different.
Her face smiled but her soul didn’t.
and that was the moment she was alone,
it faded into nothing.
you see, she wanted to feel something.
she used to believe in miracles, but that was one thing she lost.
she tried so hard to pull herself out.
But every time she tried.
she died.
