Translation:
She's a glamor queen
dressed in black and blue;
dirty pretty baby
covering up just for you
Carmine ink tells
the story's tale;
of a girl lost and alone,
a life destined to fail
Broken glass scrapes her arm;
the alcohol burns on through
She's holding back panicked tears,
none of you ever knew
The dark of night isn't enough
to hide her from mother's beast
Screams encouraged are kept
silent through gritted teeth
Avoiding used needles and condoms
scattered across the floor,
she grabs her heart and soul
and escapes out through the door
She's lost in the swarm of addiction;
life has thrown her to the side
Drugs and alcohol not by self infliction,
yet she wears both marks with no pride
Glitter stains her eye lashes,
though her outer act is tough
She could play a drama queen,
what with living it so rough
Try as she might to go unnoticed,
two men can see her inner core
But can they unlock the sinful secrets
of step daddy's little whore?
There's a flutter in her voice
when that leader totes his gun
She disagrees with his actions,
but hanging with him might be fun
And he sees it in her eyes,
and he feels it in his soul
Little brother disguises his feel,
though both would keep her whole
She's a winning beauty queen,
fragile on all the insides;
touch up on her cuts and bruises,
kiss away all that she hides

So sad. Read your stories of Kira and yes I can relate to how this is like Kira, as she is a very lone and saddened [demon, or half demon?]. Beautifully wrote though.

Kira has been my main muse for many months now. She's my favorite character ever created and if you've enjoyed my stories of her, then I am glad and hope you've been thoroughly entertained by them.
