Desperate for attention,
She smothered everyone
With wool-lined words
Until she turned on you.
She scratched with nails
Filed down with rejection
And pierced those who came
Near her with her fangs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We tried to help when
She said she needed us,
But it became so constant,
We stopped believing her.
Then one day, she really
Needed us; it was too late.
We had grown tired of
Her claiming false pain.
So when the time came,
That she was truly hurting
We would not come to
Her rescue anymore.
