"The Girl"
There once was a girl
Who smiles so wide
It makes you forget
The darkness lurks inside
She seemed so happy
So carefree and relaxed
But her demons were waiting
Were ready for attack
They took her smile
And stole her tears
They stomped on her worth
And relished in her fears
This little girl
With the mega watt smile
No longer seemed
Happy after awhile
Her smiles were broken
Her heart battered and bruised
Her pain in the open
Her fears were their muse
The beat her
And bruised her
Killed her inside
But taught her
To keep it
Taught her to hide
There now lives a girl
Whose smile is distraught
Her brilliance diminished
Her worth is lost
She continues to think
And dwells in it still
Of what would have happened
Had the demons been killed
Would she still smile
Would her brilliance be lost
Would she keep living
With less of a cost
