Can'T Be Saved

She sits on the ground, head against the wall Wondering when everything went wrong The first punch was the worst The first kick was strong The first bruised never showed She listens at night for his loud footsteps ascending the stairs Waiting for the pain she can hardly bare Her friends see her terror, they see her pain They ignore it, wishing it away She sits on the couch quietly, not saying a word Keeping his secret by lying to the world She sits in the classroom, eye closed tight Hiding from the world, a secret of lies She can't remember ever being loved She can't remember ever being missed She remembers the pain when her mom left She remembers the hurt from her dad But she doesn't understand why She wished for it to all go away She wished for death She wished for forgiveness, she even begged She was to blame when her mother left Her eyes are empty, no emotion left She knows its time, Time to say goodbye She didn't expect to die like this She didn't think her life would turn out to be this She was alone, broken, she needed help Her eyes pleaded, begged Now were are too late... She cant be saved.
