I’m just standing here
Looking at the girl in the mirror
Following her tears
While they gently roll over her cheeks
She dreams of the things she wants
The things she needs
To stop the tears
For they only come in the night
When she’s weak
Black as the shadow of loneliness
Her eyes pierce through my soul
I wish I could take the pain away
She never got a chance
Sometimes she believes it’s meant to be
We sit and wait for
The tears to turn from crystal clear white
Into blood
She’s only 15 but her heart has almost bled
to a fearful and untimely death
all the candles and torches in the world
would never match a glimpse of her smile
She’s dying
I can’t do anything but continue
Crying
Why am I in this position
Why is she going through so much pain
Why
