Death's hungry eyes looked down on her
Waiting to be fed
He crouched and waited patiently
For she would soon be dead
Betrayals blow had struck her hard
A wound she could not bear
Deep inside her tender heart
He'd left a fatal tear
Abandonment had wrapped her tight
She could not escape alone
Her strength was not enough to live
His grip was hard as stone
All hope had faded from her eyes
She had lost her will to fight
But the war was not yet over
There came a gentle knight
He rode upon an untamed stead
Laughter was its name
He brought light to her sorrow
She would never be the same
He sent death far away from her
He erased betrayal's mark
He stole her from abandonment
He chased away the dark
She was swept into a another world
Where love reigned over all
And he was always there beside her
So she would never fall
Past monsters were nothing now
But memories of a dream
They could never touch her here
Or so it would seem
She lived in momentary bliss
Never thinking of the end
They built their world on fairy tales
But it was all pretend
Their world was never meant to last
Not built on solid ground
And when it was put to the test
It sunk without a sound
The knight's facade wore too thin
His true face began to show
Betrayal's eyes gleamed through his smile
A horrifying glow
As fast as it had come to be
Paradise faded away
It melted into darkness
She could not keep it at bay
The monsters had toyed with her
For their own twisted fun
They had put her in a fantasy
Then decided they were done
Now she is alone again
With no one left to trust
All she held so dearly
Has crumbled into dust
Death's hungry eyes look down on her
Waiting to be fed
He crouches, waiting patiently
For she will soon be dead
