You Could Have Saved Her

Her heart weighs her down
And her laughter cannot hide her frown
Her hopes been shattered
And her souls battered
No longer can this little girl hide behind the blade
For the scars never fade
But through it all her blood still stained the ground
And still no one ever found
She hoped they would 
She knew they could
But no one ever seemed to care
So now today these burdens she shall bare
The girl will stumble down this path of hers
And her life shall unfurl
Her Tears will be shed
And her demons fed
But through out it all that  little girl wants you to know that you could have saved her life
And You should have made that sacrifice
