Lying pale in her bed
Almost wishing she was dead
Throwing back the covers
Passing pictures of her with invisible lovers
She goes to a drawer
Remebering all the time her father screamed at her "You stupid whore!"
Opening that almost empty drawer
Wishing she had been meant for more
Than lonely cold nights
And her failing family's fights
In that drawer there is a jewerly box
And assorted keys to lost locks
Opening the box with trembling hands
Her heart turns to ash
Blown away like a desert's sands
Over turning her wrists, "SLASH SLASH"
The flash of the blade catching the light
Reflects her eyes, giving away her soul's flight
Stumbling back to bed
Memories passing through her head
The dainty gold anklet she wore,
The bell gave a final jingle, and moved no more
The door opened the breakfast tray fell to the floor
The glass that impaled her mother's foot seemed to cut to the core
Her daughter lay on the bed
Everything around her stained a dying red
The eyes that looked back did not see her
Everything swirled and grew to a blur
Picking up her daughters stone cold hand
In the pool of blood is where her knees land
Splattering them with mixed blood and tears
"Why couldn't I help my daughter face her fears?"
Hours passed as she sat there crying
The streets outside grew busy as the time kept flying
Unaware of the death and pain
Thinking noone loved her, the girl took her life in vain
Why was she in such a hurry to die?
Finally inside her fake celestial skies
But her mother was in no haste
To share with her daughter their last embrace
