What happened?
Who was she before the pain? Was she the girl that we loved and her love taken in vain? She used to sit against the door waiting for the hate to end. Now she sits there waiting for her heart to mend. Her arms are filled with scars that tell a story. A story that has little to none of the glory. Her eyes, they show nothing but fear . She lost everything she once held dear. When she walks, it feels as if she's walking through water. She was told that she has keep being the perfect daughter . So she keeps all the pain hidden inside, And she pushes all her emotions to the side. In order to seem perfect , she keep a smile on her face. She runs and runs until she loses the race. She loves Art and Dance, Music too! But her mind just doesn't know what to do. She's hurting herself by keeping it quiet . She herself, is on a diet . She will starve and waste away . If it means her siblings live another day. The clock ticks on as the hours go by. She says nothing as she knows she's told another lie. Her mouth is kept shut by a invisible lock. As she sinks down, her legs binded by a rock. She would give it all away for some praise. But she wont have little ones that she could raise.
