She fades into the darkness like an unnoticed soul
The lights slowly burn out until her face is lit by a single candle
She stands alone as dusk turns into night fall
She knows what it's like to live without a life
Everyone tells her to accept those cold, dark years
She feels her life is the sand in the hourglass on her window sill
As the night gets darker, she stands and grows colder
Her life is slipping away
Even though the abuse is over, her scars remain
Though the hurt may be through with, the tears stay on
She just prays that one day she will be able to hope again
and one day, it will make her stronger
Her diary tells her true feelings
My whole life has been a mistake
Every night, i have to live with this torture
And life itself is only a teardropp
I wonder how long i can stay this way
I wonder how long before the light once again fades
I was abused until i bled
I am still reliving the pain every day
She stands on the street corner, alone
Her life is as black the bitumen in front of her
She's just another soul caught in a tragic mess
But I wonder how long she can just stand there
STOP CHILD ABUSE
IT AFFECTS SOMEONES WHOLE LIFE
