Silence: Death's Prayer

Little girl with bouncing curls
Adopted when she was one
Around her yard she twirls
Her life has just begun

She has this great huge smile
Plastered on her face
It makes things worth while
She's finally found a place

She's in a home with love and care
With family who will be there
Through think and thin and high and low
This little girl.. she does know

But she's afriad of her dad
Because of past experiences she had
Too little to remember them
And no one knows when

She grew with that pain inside
Yet the pain she tried to hide
She got bigger every day
But the pain did in the same way

Years pass and she's fifteen
She's becoming someone mean
Hiding in the shadows of her room
Destined herself into doom

The loving heart-felt family changed
The house of love rearranged
Into some blood-curdling screams
A family isn't what it seems

Somehow the little girl in her was gone
The days just seemed way too long
The pain in her left through a knife
She was so tried of her life

She'd seen joy, and she had seen tears
She had seen it all in her years
What more is there to life than this?
Nothing happy, no more bliss

Parents screaming down the stairs
Putting on their "angry" airs
She hides up in the attic
Trying to hide from all the panic

There she spends her lonely days
Life fades into a gray haze
Blood has tainted it's wooden floors
And she has locked all the doors

Hiding from even her shadow
She peeks through the shutters to the meadow
Picturing that as a heavenly state
She knows recovery is too late

The rusty blade, her trusty friend
Helps her whimper into her end
One large slice across her throat
There wasn't a word to be wrote

Silence was her death's prayer
She lay her bloody body there
To die amist all the dust
Her death it seems, was a must

The little girl no longer smiles
On her older face, a bloody stare
Her bones hollow shallow piles
And to this day she lays there...
