She couldn't see

She felt power surging through her veins 

until it disintegrated

She grew possibilities on a tree and watered it with tears

until the tree was cut down 

She felt like the weight of the sky had been taken off her 

until it all came crashing down 

In her mind she was perfect 

locked in a box, unable to see the light poking through 

she could only see pockets of the real world 

for she was stuck in a fantasy 

and the key was her heart 

but she couldn't seem to reach it

 since she didn't understand herself

She remained locked in a cage 

She couldn't see herself 

or the potential she had

She gave and she gave till everything was taken out 

and she was left empty 

for she couldn't see the real world 

only pockets of the sky

everything was just a haze 

until she was disintegrated 

until she was cut down

until everything came crashing down on her
