Down the Corridors She Still Walks

There was a little girl
So different from the others
With internal heartfelt cries
Her existence in lonely smother

She never fitted in
Her parents became so lost
A decision they came to make
To their paternal cost

To a place where they have taken her
This girl from their hearts
They are now lost in their limbo
Heavy tears as they depart

The doors close and sever
As they fade away
Into her distance
From her future stay
 
To her room she is taken
Her world now torn apart
Scared and visibly shaken
Her past and them apart

Many months have passed
As trauma's fill her years
Happenings so horrific
That left so many fears
 
Deaths became so common
Objects would fly at speed
As all around her panic
She's called the devils seed
 
It's been two decades now
As this place has died it's death
This girl that came so young
Left so many reft

Her life was finally taken
One long cold winters day
In a bath full of water
She let the razor play

This building she called home
Where people passed and talked
This young girl, the devils seed
Still down the corridors she walks
