OMG I'm on a roll and I hope you're loving it too.

She left the house of hurt and anger
to walk the world - full of danger , she's searching for peace though she'll never have it ,
as the hot hurt brims her cheeks
and the flowing pain begins to peak

Step walk move run step walk move

Stop

She's at the place she always hates because it has control over her and that's the worst kind of situation because when she's not in control she's vulnerable and really - she's had enough of that

But she's here now to take control of everything she was ever given and thinking back , it was only this , a fragile body , too broken to kiss

Above her the night sky begins to beg , it can read her intentions and her thoughts are too big. Trapped inside the human head are many monsters from under beds , they control the lives and the pain of others.

But when she's not in control she's vulnerable , and frankly , she's had enough of that

So no matter how the night sky begs ,she pushes her shoes away from her legs

And takes a breath and begins to plummet

And all the monsters reach the summit

Of her tiny human head that no longer functions because she's laid -

Dead.
