Too Late
Stains from an incable mind
Easily impressionable
Easily scarred
Easily hidden
Now left with these markings
Unexplainable knicks and bruises
Scraps and Scabs
Needle and Thred
placed between two of
her own thumbs cannot
repair the damage
Strike the child
Hit the vien
Blood pulsating
out of her
Invisible cry for help
A cry for attention
Compassion
That of which she
already recieves
is not enough to
fill the void,
that of which lives
inside her needs to
be constantly fed
as there are holes
Multiple cracks and
creveces from the
times she has been
dropped smashed
and stabbed at.
Don't try to fix her,
Don't even touch her,
It's already too late.
