Seven Days

If only you could've seen the color fade from her eyes, like that last moment of a sunny sky. If only you could've seen her give and give, spit on and trampled as a reward. If only you could've seen her lonely smile frozen in time, all she asked for was the man to be kind. If only you could've seen her lay in that ditch face down and forgotten like a dirty b----. If only you could've seen her cry and cry, screaming she was too young to die. If only you could've seen the beauty of her birth and now she lay forgotten. If only you had seen her beautiful smile, what i saw and you were too stupid to foresee.
