A Girl and Her Knife
Deeply she cuts
On her sides
Releasing her pain
In red form.
The knife
her release
of pain
too deep
Day by day
no one sees
this pain
she carries
so very deep.
Lovely smile with frowning eyes
of the lies shes told.
At home its hell
Her dad
loves the drink
And doesn’t think
of the pain he inflicts
with each sip he takes
upon his little girl
Her mother gone
And sadly missed.
Alone is she
with nothing but her knife
To release her pain
Deep inside!
