Her eyes were raw
But she could not cry
It was all she saw
The pain and the lies
Her hope was broken
She felt incomplete
Freedom was wanted she wanted to be
To be able to laugh
To be able to smile
If not even once
But once in a while
She has to survive
She has to survive
It's the only thing that could keep her alive
Her eyes started to water
But she held the tears back
She never wanted
To be seen like that
Her life was of ruins
She hurt a real lot
Her family was gone
And left to rot
It was a long time
And yet it still hurt
She felt like a crime
And even worse
But she needed to survive
They would want it that way
So she got up
And tried to close the pain
Oh lord, dear god
Cleanse her poor soul
Fill it life or destroy it whole
She needs to be stronger
To hold all that pain
To move on with her life
To become whole again
Open her eyes
So then she can see
What she really is meant to be
Show her she's important
And that she is loved
Then she'll be free
She has to hold on
Take a deep breath
And maybe she'll get some rest
Bending down she sat on the floor
She closed her eyes shut
They began to water
Tears pricked her eyes
But she let them fall
Empower her
She stood very still
And cried for long hours
Then she got up
And took a deep breath
Soon she thought
It will all be right
Everything will be all right
And that will at least
Get her through the night
And she will live
A happy good life
