Efforts are twisted
Any roots are burned
Because that's not the way
It should be
Pulled from books
Off screens
Far away fantasy lands
Imagination, fake
She knows, she says
She knows
Defining moments
Twisted to insult
Venting for hours
Words that solve nothing
Can't change the world
The days drag by
Merging grey into gray
Barely noticing a day
Storms, she says
Rage, she says, inside
She doesn't know fire
Restrained fury, black
What's back, clouded, hidden
Behind eyes she could never read
It's unseen by her
And I'm proud of that
Keep it back, incheck
Because she so bad
She'll never know
Because I love her
So she'll rage, fight and cry
Anger, fists, and tears
Broken upon the stone
Because that's all she's become
In the downward spiral
Digging her own grave
A strain on her mortal soul
Because her world is her own
So remain calm,
In place, bring the storm
