Waiting to die

I met this girl, it's been a while.

I fell in love with her face, her smile.

She is beyond nice, she's smart too,

I dont think she has ever told a lie, or been lied to.

But she holds a secret, one she can't confess

Everything thought in her mind, its a mess.

She dreams of pain, of death

She dreams of taking her last breath.

She has no reasons for these feelings, she knows this

She can't help it,she has never felt bliss

It's in her blood, its in her genes.

Her dads hand, its in here jeans.

Every night,when he comes home

She thinks she's safe, but by the look in his eyes, you can tell he's stoned.

She looks just like her mother, he thinks to try to justify,

She is just waiting to die.

Awe, such a heartbreaking story that you tell. It's never easy to protect someone who goes through such abuse like that and after awhile, their minds aren't together anymore, could never be put back together. Some people are internally damaged forever and it's sick how some people still try getting away with such things with children...I also love the rhyming scheme that you did here :) great job!
