Innocence

A innocent newborn child was born,

Into a loud and crazy life.

With her Dad's first look it was sworn,

That she would be a good wife.

Growing up with innocence,

Surprising everyone with her brilliance.

And with that innocence , she found the man of her dreams.

But there love ripped her at the seams.

With a diamond ring,

On her left finger, she never thought what it might bring.

A match made from above,

With every kiss and hug, made them both fall deeper in love.

Every morning and night,

They both put up a fight.

And every day she covered her self,

With makeup and his wealth.

But, makeup is only skin deep,

And even the softest touch on purple marks made her weep.

But one day ,she got tired of it all,

And she made one final call.

After the conversation was through,

She knew exactly what she had to do.

She put on her last smile of beauty,

And goes and does her unwanted duty.

Now she is an angel, like her name.

And no one she knew would ever be the same.

Now she is back to being pure and innocent,

but her last words spoken in that last call were brilliant.

Dad, I love and think about you

I want you to know I always do.

But my life didn’t fall into place,

But I finally found my saving grace.

I cry myself to sleep nightly,

All because my scars are unsightly.

The boy I thought I loved, hit me.

And I think he did it just out of glee.

I'm calling you to say, that I might have been the angel of the family

But I cant finish out the wish of the family.

I have been torn, like a page out of a book.

If you just turn around and took a second look.

You would see all these scars, that cover my arms,

Were released by a broken heart.

All these bruises on my face,

Will take me to a safer place.

I'm leaving for my safe haven tomorrow,

And I didn't want to leave you in sorrow.

So if you are wondering why,

This is my last goodbye.
