She Has To Give Up

Her poetry Her words
All of them; are gone. 
 She's screaming she's crying
 Her father is hitting her  
  For all the words she wrote
Saying She was a terrible person
  She stopped screaming for him to stop. 
 She muffled her own sobs 
She knows there's no use trying 
She's gonna stop writing 
She's done 
She can't let it out anymore 
Her release was found
Her thoughts revealed 
It wasn't safe anymore 
It got dangerous 
She has to give up.
