She Cried Wolf

Folder: 
Other Dedications

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.
