Broken Angel

Not just a  pretty little girl
At least so young and forever free
Many troubles suffocate her
Her consistent cries sicken me

Not just a magnificent soul
The night rests at the heels of her feet
Her deceiving smile hides a tragedy
With muttered words so discreet

Not just a beautiful spirit
Cobwebs make a home on her heart
Her cold tears burn as fire
So desperate for a foreign start

Not just a beaten, hopeless dreamer
Face pale and fragile as a snowflake
She drifts away with the frigid wind
Testing how much more her rotting body will take

Not just a scarred, frozen angel
To have lost all love that she had
The night wraps her in chains
Her hungry conscience going mad

Not just a weeping, lonely girl
Wilting with time as a rose
No heart worn upon her sleeve
Her scars tell a tale only she knows

Not just a pitied, foolish girl
Her whole life crashed into a wreck
As she cries out to the heavens above
She wraps the rope around her neck
