FooFoo
She lives in a constant state of heightened fear,
tear-tracks cutting lines through the cheap veneer.
Hiding away from life, her soul's in retraction,
Fearing for her sanity because of her own inaction
My soul goes out to her, with her emaciated frame.
I feel so much empathetic love, feel her tortured pain.
I don’t believe she will ever trust me with her given name,
But we walk along the same cliff-top, on the edge of insane
I’m in a far better place than she is currently residing,
even the psych-suits admit that her life is nosediving.
I long to reach out mentally, implore her to achieve,
but this disease becomes so personal, she never would believe.
I send up a prayer to The Gods, pray that she'll pull through,
this beautiful, nameless woman-child who calls herself FooFoo.
May The Gods grant her serenity, allow her the time to heal,
retract the years of misery and I'll forsake my own to seal the deal
Walk with thunder, sweet Princess, it's now time to awake
Ensure he feels your vengeance coming, make the ground shake
You know that, deep down, he only has the heart of a coward
Draw your strength from me, feel enriched and feel empowered.
