I'm not afraid to fly,
Except when I have wings;
And then, you see,
Is when I'll be
A fearful, flighty thing.
I watch my sis lying there on this cold white bed
Each breath a struggle
Her face a mask of pain
She has not awakened yet
I know not if she will

It is her life you see
She was always being knocked around

She would say "oh sis don’t worry"

"I fell down the stairs"

"Oh sis I fell in the whole in the back yard"

"That is how I broke my arm"

"Sis you worry to much" she would say

Why didn’t I stop it?
I knew it was happening
Why did I ignore the signs?

Yes she assured me it was not true
But a fool could figure it out
She winced when a man would approach
Any man not just him

Now she is in this bed
Bleeding on her brain
Broken soul,
Nose
Arm
Pelvis

That is not even the bad part
The cuts are the worst
How could he carve her?
Just to see her bleed as he beat her
Cutting his initials in her stomach
Scarring her there for life

All because she interrupted his phone call

Why did I not stop this?
Why did I let her convince me she was ok?

This is my sis
I should have done something
Now it may be to late
He may have done the one thing that cannot be undone
My tears fall down onto her body
My tears mix with her blood
She will die soon

Without awakening
She will be somewhere without fear or pain
But me I am stuck here
Realizing I saw the signs

And its my own fault for not pushing her
For not taking her away
It is my fault that there is blood and tears

I think it's time
To say goodbye
I don't get at all
Why everything had to die

Blackened roses
Sitting on the sill
Lying right next
To the empty bottle of pills

Lying on the ground
Right next to where you lay
Is a small scrap of paper
Leaving not much to say

I lifted it up
Up off the ground
Stared at it
I couldn't make a sound

"I'm sorry for all the problems
I'm sorry for the lies
I'm sorry for all the hurt I've caused
I hate what I've become inside

I'm sorry for how
I have left you here
Don't worry anymore darling
There's nothing left to fear

I've gone to see a better place
A place where angels roam
A place with no problems
Where hate cannot be sown

Good luck down here
Where our family now stays
I am praying for you
To meet me here one day

Untill then
I guess it's goodbye
Just remember there's nothing to fear
When the light goes black and dies"
