And never knowing when you even started to slip

Hurting each second she bumped into them Fracturing herself all the way down

With each step it broke her more

Leaving bruises inked on her,

Already perfectly scarred back

Jagged lines where he had R I P P E D of her wings

Never caring that he was murdering an angel

As he pushed her from her

Heavenly light

Knowing she would gladly fall

Smiling as she realized she couldn't

And no one was standing on the grass

B E L O W to hold her

But each blade was a wish from her soul Watching frantically as

Her soul accidentally b u m p s into his

Each cruel touch caressing her demons

Like shards of glass s c r a p i n g her skin

And blood

He just glanced at her bleeding form

Saying it was better this way

Pulling the string that held her to him

And cutting it as she cried

Staring at the broken e n d s

And wishing for them to j u s t   s p e a k to tell her the mistakes she had made

That buried her in this horrible place

Anxious for just a laugh

Gurgling from his beautiful through

A simple hello would suffice

But all she heard was silence

Waiting for call that never came

Just like the love never went away

She hoped she would just need one more night

To stare at the place he

Had dropped her from

The heavens calling her name

As they saw the tears leaking down her face

Washing the memories from her face

Messy tendrils just like her throat

As she tried to shake the craziness from its strands

The devil had made brought the madness from his home

Letting it wander into her mind

Because her soul was unlocked

Still her left her Wondering where her heart had R A N off too

She guessed it was just chasing after him, looking only for the feathers

He had lopped off from her spine

Her love darted along beside him

Still he never glanced at

Rejecting the beauty that followed it

Saying that he had let her fall

Because he knew he couldn't

C A T C H her

But she R E A C H E D for him

Sending him the most devilish of grins

Hiding herself so they would

Behave the same

But he had already let go

And even the stars which had

Watched her love the evilest of them

S T O P and S T A R E

Begging her to shine just like them

And call them home
