the cries of a young girls pain

The cries of a young girls pain




    As I walk up these stairs, guess what I see?
    I see a family of two, with the faces of glee
    When you look into my eyes
    You'll never know the pain that's inside
    Think of a flower that has begun to wilt
    This girl in front of you has a lot of doubt she has dealt
    Do not weep do not sob
    Instead think of corn on the cob
    As you eat the corn, you throw the cob away
    The girl with horns is now in misery
    The sounds of smack against her skin
    The light in her eyes has begun to dim
    The flower, once young and beautiful, is now old and dead
    Just like this girl, she is still young and beautiful, but she is now old and dead in her head
    The sounds of silent cries echoes in her room
    The girl wonders if this is her doom
     As you hear the sounds of screams
     You'll never hear her cries and weeps as she dreams
    As you hear laughter roaming in the halls
    You'll never hear her weep, her tears now as waterfalls
   Quicksand that has pulled you in quick
   Is the mind of this girl which has begun to sink
   As she gets snitched by her brother
    She still wishes she had her mother and grandmother
    "I'm sending you away!"
    Well...let's just hope I"ll be put into a good family
    As I write this just know
    For this is my story of pain but to show that I also grow
    Do not worry for what I've put here
    Do not shed a single tear
    For my name is Myia (My-ee-uh) and I am a survivor
    I am stronger and I will not keep silence any longer


      The end
