Two Sides of Poetry

The Girl with No Soul *

How does it feel to know she is gone?

To know you were the one who killed her

You drive her to her death

She had nowhere to run

She had nowhere to hide

Every turn she turned

You were there

You tortured her soul

And left her to die

And that's what she did

She died

She ran and ran

Down those tracks

But you wouldn't let her go

She just had to die

She's running!

You would scream

And you'd run and catch her

You would strangle her with you bare hands

Her sisters were there

They just laughed with you

Her mother denied

All that happened

She put forth her blind eye

So how does is feel

Now that she is gone

That you were the one who killed her

She ran and ran

Ran to her death

Because no matter where she turned

You were there

To choke her dreams

And then one day

She had enough

She stopped running

She was tired

She could only run for so long

And you finally caught her

And she let you drag her bleeding body away

You feasted on her soul

Smiling in triumph

But you didn't know

You had torn out her soul

Long before

She gave up

She ran with no soul

Only her will to survive

Left to motivate her

And finally

That was gone

Yet you still smiled

For you had killed

The girl with no soul
