There was once a girl,
And she was loved by all,
and she was beautiful,
and she was young.
There was once a girl,
And she was innocent, pure,
and she was honest,
and she laid bare all.
There was once a girl,
And she was beautiful,
and she was unaware,
and she was filled,
plagued with insecurity.
There was once a girl,
And she was pensive,
and she was overlooked,
and she was numb,
she was broken,
yet she was still young.
There was once a girl,
who lived a life of battle,
who drank for the pain,
who swallowed for the suffering,
who jumped for the isolation,
So that she wasn't a girl anymore.
