I've Failed In Every Aide

Her hazel eyes are filled with sorrow
Cheeks, burning with bloody tears
Her life has given no promised tomorrow
Alas, faded the comfort all these years

Her fairly tanned skin has lost its color
Her weight, shifted above the norm
Nights have grown cold, days so much duller
Her sanity grips to a mad storm

Her knuckles are white, but remotely bloody
The mirror cracked beneath her skin
Here is a girl, once so alive, I've studied
The odds are evident she can't win

She waits all day for one big wonder
She cries, into darkness and no one hears
Oh, how I wish I could go save her,
To be the swallow of all fears

And, she never yet beseeched my aide
She screams; her heart I try to grasp
I can't change the bargain. Satan's been paid
And he succeeded...this will last

Now I realize my mistake, with utmost regret
A part of me wants to believe
I should be paid because I owe this debt
Yet a voice whispers "let me leave"

I want to free her from all the pain
As this sickness engulfs my mind
A part of me was beautiful, the other...shamed
And now both I've left behind
