Before her last tears fall

I hear her softly crying
she tries to wipe away the tears
but she cannot control them
they are from her painful years

she tries to wipe away the memories
and the impact that they made
but they will always be there
like scars that just wont fade

i have tried to help her
ive tried to make her see
that she will be okay
but she shakes her head at me

i want to wipe away her tears
hug and hold her tight
dont cry little girl
everything will be alright

no one even noticed
or even seemed to care
about the nightmare she was living
everyone unaware

her cries she tries to soften
as her tears drop tot he floor
she knows she cannot live like this
can't take it anymore

i need to try and stop her
before her life is gone
she needs to know i care
before her last tears fall
