Pressed to the wall
no longer can she stand,
covering her battered soul,
reviving from the fall of man.
Shattered she seeks a hand
to carry her away from pain,
tho the hand she finds
only leads her there again.
Not able to bare the hate
she falls to a place of sin,
and is reminded of all the places
shes already been.
look away from the reality,
toward the last breath,
this angel of perfection
can no longer cheat her death.
Torn between the here and now
she closes her eyes and speaks,
"This is not what i want of life,
happiness is all i seek."
