Huddled in the corner,
alone and scared.
Doesnt know what she did
or how she even got there.
Somewhere down the road
life took a turn,
now all that is left;
Scars up her arm, self-inflicted burns.
She grew up as an angel,
Daddy's little girl,
but slave to the devil she became.
Tainted by the cruelty of the world.
Found refuge in the streets
freedom within a needle.
But at night she still cries
Invisible to all the people.
To forget was all she asked;
wipe the slate clean.
But punishment she now must indure
suffocating in her own silent scream.
Time is frozen, tears stand still.
All I want;
to remember how to feel.
Author notes
I touch the fire and it freezes me,
I look into it, and its black.
my skin cracks and peels,
but yet,I still dont feel.
I want the fire back.
Please tell me what you think
