perfectly soft, cascading hair crest of a neck so real stripped of all innocence laying bare words could never heal on her sleeves, emotions to wear silence of the night thick to feel never would she be the same only loneliness -herself remain walking through the halls facing all her peers no one would ever know at all her watermark of tears couldn't tell she'd built a wall to keep inside her fears would never let one break it down comfortable inside her frown looking now inside to face herself at last she's battling demons now, demons all her own rising triumph threatens to destroy her happy past tearing ripping swallowing up what was once her home emptiness consumes her, left in a field so vast why me now this? all questions left unknown never would she be the same only loneliness -herself remain
