her skin was as white as chalk
and her heart was as cold as ice
and she was still
so very young
but she felt like all her life
would come to an end
if she didn't find
"the one"
soon

she was naive
to the worlds cruel ways
and unbeknown
to the way that life's
most devious plans
always ended in somebody getting hurt
not just her

but she felt alone
with nobody to hold
and so much love to give
and every time
she thought she had found someone
to love and care for
she was taught that love
was a falseness
that existed only
in her fairytales
and her most extraordinary
fantasies

I'm not sure
if it was the way
you treated me
like nothing
that made me fall
in love with you
but I think
it might have been
because I loved
the idea
of someone
hating me
as much
as I
do

your eyes
are so beautiful
and it would be an honour
to drown in them

your smile was the only home
that I have ever known
your mind the only place
that I could ever call my own
I built myself on foundations that were made up of you
and when you left me
I was still stuck on you
unable to move

buttercup hair with a marigold smile
and eyes that made me think of the way
that the wind blew softly
through my heart
always
and a smile
that could forever light up
my mind
and inspire my words
to flow so effortlessly
to the tune of a thousand birds
singing out your name

the only reason
i ever submitted
to all of your childish needs
was because i was alone
vulnerable and broken
and in need of a hand to hold
and the fact it just happened to be you
that tripped me up
along the path to recovery
is the only reason
i will ever look back
upon my past and frown

you knew me better than anybody
and some may see this as a good thing
a chance for someone to finally care
about the girl that hid behind a façade
all of her life

but you saw this as nothing more
than an opportunity to break down
the next of your many victims
to lead them into the falsest sense of security
that there could ever possibly be
with the i love yous and forevers
then tear them down
and try to destroy them

but when you left
after trying to hurt me
you did nothing more
than save me
