Once upon a time,
In the middle of the night,
A girl and a shark got up to a fight.
They are so different,
Yet so alike,
He's doomed to darkness,
While she glows and shines.
She walks gracefully in the dark.
Only looking up.
She is oblivious to the watching shark.
She dances around,
bringing joy and smiles,
To the pained hearts she considers worthwhile.
She believes in soul mates.
She believes in love.
But the sad truth is,
She has none of the above.
The awaiting shark has lost his soul,
He stupidly thinks,
"She can fill the hole."
That empty hole in his chest,
It swallows everything.
Even his own blood and flesh.
The pain has made him numb,
Turning him into a cold monster.
One that does not deserve love.
Hurtful words have stamped his spirit,
And scars mark his body,
Salvation is inacessable to him.
He is just a nobody.
The Girl and the Shark,
Must stay apart,
Because he will not wound
Her precious, kind heart.
