Dark Room
The time passes by
And all she can do is cry
While she can still remember
Two years ago that cold December
As his fury took over him, his feelings succeeded
A lost battle she tried she cried and pleaded
All over the floor the blood from her knees
The scrapes she received as she yelled please
No one heard a thing for he made sure of it
Far from people in a room that was not lit
Every thought that ran through her mind
She hoped if she died her body they'd find
He went as if she was ok with it
Every time she screamed harder he'd hit
Then she let go
She stopped trying,
She stopped crying,
She stopped screaming
And he drained all her pleading
For he was winning
He took over her
He hit her more
She couldn't go beyond the floor
The lost of inoccence she will never forget
Meeting him was her only regret
She never knew
What he could do
And she is no longer alone in that cold dark room
Her life she sadly has to resume
Her parents still cry at night
For they were not there to help her fight
Her dad so proud, hard it was for him to cry
Her mom so sad that her only daughter could almost die
She isn't alone anymore
No longer will she be on that floor
But as thoughts come back
Of the night that was cold and black
Time passes by
All she can do is cry
