Such a sweet girl
But what do they know
Always giving
How much more can they take
Before they start to bruise her soul

I watch helpless
they keep coming back
Like vampires to the vein
Can you help me
Will you take away my fear 
And erase away my pain

Her tears are falling
They overwhelm her with their need
But this sweet girl
She opens her own wrist 
And they crowd around to feed

They will plead ignorance
Pretend not to know of the scars she bares
their ears they  deafen
blocking out the cries of her despair


they  are selfish
Tearing at her heart
With their endless need
Forgetting she is fragile 
consumed by their own greed

I wish to free her
Free her from the chains
That bind her to this place
Strength has left me
Vanished without a trace

She

She is the sound of the wind in the night
The soft warm quilt that wraps you so tight

She is the spark in the fire that burns
Like a spinning rainbow all colors take turns

She is laughter riding the stars
All mystery and magic exotic by far

She is the smile that lit up your face
Breathing elegance, beauty, charm and grace

She is the risk that you feared to grasp
Now slowly she’s slipping out of your clasp
