The Girl and the Shark
Once upon a time, in the middle of the night
A girl and a shark got up to fight.
They are so different yet so much alike.
He is hopelessly doomed,
Whilst she glows and shines.
She walks gracefully in the dark.
Ignoring the constant danger,
Oblivious to the watching Shark.
She dances around bringing joy and smiles
To those pained hearts
She considers worthwhile.
She believes in soul mates,
She believes in love,
But the cruel truth is
She doesn't have any of those.
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 had made him numb
Turning him into a cold monster,
One that doesn't deserve love.
Hurtful words have stamped his spirit.
Scars have marked his body,
Salvation is inaccessible to him
He is just a nobody.
The girl and the shark must stay apart,
Because he will not wound
Her precious kind heart
-Evan.
