She's Lost
Things I never thought possible have all come true
Even my worst nightmares are real
I never knew exactly how much it all hurt
Until I sat down at night and just let my mind wonder
Every little thing that has every bothered me
Comes running back in a way so strong I want to cry
Unfortuantly no matter how hard I try to act like it don't hurt
It does, it kills me inside every time I'm reminded of them
Images flash into my head of things I could have had
Things I sometimes wish I had
They over come me and cause me to go insane
Cause me to become this helpless little girl
A child for the most part
One who tries her hardest but still falls to her knees
On the outside I look okay like nothing can hurt me
When on the inside I'm screaming for help
This strong girl has finally reached her limits with bad things
And has turned into this fragile child, she thought she had left behind
The child who can't handle things for herself
Who has to run away and cry alone
Because this strong girl doesn't wont the outside world
Knowing how weak she's become
