Her


It was lonely It was harsh tears fell from my sleepless eyes I didn't understand anything Why I accepted it Why I deserved this position It wasn't until I was nothing that I felt everything I drowned my days in memories I tried to stop the sober mind I couldn't handle it I couldn't breathe And I was fading away I was selfish in my sadness I was losing what I love I cried and cried until I couldn't take the sound of the crying child inside No one was coming And someone needed to save her I stomped both feet on the ground the second I caught my breathe She needed me I was able to lift that sad girl in my lap I let her know I would now protect her
