What Lies Beneath
Folder:
Life her cold hands shake
her body numb
she cant turn back
what she has done
the blood runs down
her tiny arm
on the floor it falls
shes done so much harm
she tried to stop
but the pain was to strong
she knew what she was doing
she knew it was wrong
but the blade felt so good
pressed against her cold skin
so she started to show
how she felt from within
but nobody noticed
no one ever cared
nobody loved her
no one was ever there
this girl was a cheerleader
she was happy all the time
but no one really knew
the things that swam through her mind
she watched the blood fall
as it slid through her finger tips
till she could really feel
that she soon would not exist
her pain slowly fades
as she closes her eyes
she was only 8
but that wasnt her first time
she started to fade
and she fell asleep
this goes to show
that you never really know
