The Bones In the Hole

As a star to a child, Far from earth, Born in the wild, Nurtured from birth, By an addict within, Leaves behind a mistake, Forgiveness for her sin, Sympathy she'll fake. Disbelief arose the town, Betrayed by their own kind, Picture torn down, No more body to find, The departure was planned, By an indecisive soul, A printed story to stand, The bones in the hole.
