Where Is Everyone?

Where is everyone?
 
My soul is aching, my mind is in crumbled pieces.
 
I see the traffic and through the tears blurring my sight, I ask out loud...
 
Where is everyone?
 
I keep crying out for help, but no one hears my cries.
 
Can't you see the pain?  So evident if you really cared.
 
My eyes are empty, all life erased.
 
Eye shadow, mascara, and eyeliner can't liven up the darkness.
 
Where is everyone?
 
How have you not missed seeing my presence?
 
How come you only whisper and gossip to others, but choose to not ask?...where is Michelle?
 
Where is everyone?
 
They are where they always have been.  Let's be honest.  They are the spectators, they are the audience.  Watching, assuming, filling in the holes of the story they missed, but think they figured out, and chose to never ask.
 
Where is everyone?
 
Stop, only concern yourself with the few who you do not have to ask where they are.
 
It is a new season.  You are on a new journey to a new you.  The rebirth of a new Michelle.
 
This is the story of Michelle, the person who decided surviving was the only option.  Death no more.
 
But stop.  Death of that lost soul searching for everyone is a must.
 
There cannot be a rebirth without the death taking place.
 
Whatever it takes, that is me.  The matrix I was living on a crash course...absolute self-destruction.
 
Yes, whatever it takes.
 
Nose dive, straight into the mountains, inferno...Number one priority.  Ashes to be released upon my return with the ones I love and those that love me.
 
Spiritual awakenings.  Oh, what a blessing.  My faith tested, forced work to transform from the caterpillar to the beautiful butterfly meant to fly high and soar the skies.
 
Pump with all things that will allow me to transform, because I will do whatever it takes.
 
Tears flowing down my cheeks, the traffic is no longer an option.
 
Where is everyone?
 
No longer a factor where everyone is and where they have been.
 
With a purpose, I am fierce. 
 
For me, I am that warrior that survived.
