Vines wrap around her slowly,
Creeping up,
Snagging against her pearly skin,
Producing crimson water scratches.
Bruised and alone,
No one there to save her.
The vines enfold her head,
Tugging harshly through her tangled hair.
The moon turns away,
Leaving her to darkness.
Legs won’t move,
And her arms are trapped in the vine web.
Purple lips move silently,
Screaming till no more sound escapes.
Heart breaking over and over,
No longer can she breathe the air.
The blood mixes with rain as it pours down,
Wetting her hair,
Dripping off.
It falls,
Washing away the tears she’s cried,
But still her soul aches.
How did she get this way?
Her eyes used to sparkle like the reflections on the water,
Shining brightly for all to see.
Her smile blinded every man,
Now she’s far from everyone.
Eyes screaming for someone to see,
She plunges down toward the earth,
Never to rise again.
