Out of Control

Wore her heart upon her sleeve Her pain behind a smile Hoped that pain would leave Seems it only would beguile How life had become a chore Bowed down to the shame Forgot what true love was for Again she would taste the blame Wished for a love that's true Yet just being fed hurtful lies Bit off more than she could chew To choke upon her soft sighs Darkness became her reality Felt she had lost her very soul No longer held rationality While life spun out of control
