The little girl has long since died
The real her buried deep inside
The memories fade so fast
Not even one will last
Her soul tormented and full of pain
Her eyes tear as if they were filled of rain
Left standing out in the cold
Nothing there to hold
Her life left stranded
Forever she will be branded
Forgetting the life that she once had
But her pain makes her feel sad
Picking up from the start
Trying to mend her heart
From the ones that hurt her the most
All of them had become ghosts
She hides behind a fake smile
As she starts to walk her first mile
Wanting her life to be right
And one day it might
Holding onto some sort of hope
Finding any which way to cope
She just wanted a simple life
But it was that last slice of the knife
Through her back and into her heart
That day, she completely fell apart
Now picking up her pieces to start again
Her new life to shortly begin
Waking up from her nightmare
Is too much for her to bear
But she needs to move forward
No matter how hard
