When It Died

Dependance died with the scars on my arms
Kindness died with the scars on my mind
Trust died with the scars on my heart
I died when the blue sky turned gray

My heart died when it was betrayed
My mind died with all the screams of pain
My soul died when you turned away
My love died when it shattered into pieces

Tears fell when you kicked me out
Tears fell when my life fell apart
Tears fell when I trusted for the last time
Now tears that fall turn into ice

The girl that wanted to save the world
Now wants to watch it burn
The girl that wanted to care for all
Now caves inward for only herself
