The Secrets She Kept

She dreamed of living in an un-fragile state, And most would say this wasn’t her fate Pierced by the words of those unfavored She constantly wondered, would she be able? To free herself from all the unkind, or will burdens take her piece at a time Time is only a fragment at best, but time is all she really has left To un-wedge, the knives stuck in her back Or to heal the wounds her parents have left I can’t convey the degree of her fate, But I do know, that she can be saved Saved from the burdens, and knives that caused pain She's determined to be someone, someday
