A Dreadful Thing


A bright candle flame! A happy life tame, A open soul is named. A tear of happiness, A nights peaceful silence, A skinned knee the only thing bleeding. A loving heart steadily beating, A happy life still breathing, A life with a smile. ^_^ A dreadful thing happens… <_> A hurt life not worth living, A breathing life hurting, A scared heart relent-ly beating, A slit piece of flesh still bleeding, A nights silence haunting, A tear unwelcome, A hidden soul unnamed, A broken life untamed, A blown out candle flame!
