___
Tears after tears,
Fell from her cerulean eyes,
Lost in the ocean of confusion,
She feels herself crawl into a hole,
Filled with darkness and despair.
How much could her heart take?
She's changed, and that's all she had heard,
But she didn't,
She didn't change at all,
She's still that twelve-year-old child,
Looking for happiness,
Looking for love,
Looking for something better,
She's naive,
She's heartbroken,
She's lonely,
No one will know how much she dies every day,
Murdered by the demons created by her own,
And people?
They just gave her a good reason to feed into her demons.
She's trying to exist,
She's trying to survive,
And all they think is,
She's changing.
