Until The Day

She smiles in the darkness

She's all alone.

She's left it mark-less,

Wishes she could've grown.

She loves the pain

That's going numb

She has nothing to gain

So she starts to hum.

Alone in the dark

She closes her eyes

So surprised to find

She was always alive.

But here she is

A small black sheep.

Wondering what she did,

How she got in so deep.

Yet she turns to ignorance

And smiles,

So defiant

To be in its arms for awhile. 

Ignorance whispered 

Games to play,

She's getting blisters 

From the games it made.

So people left

Her in the dark

With the theft 

Of the lark.

Ignorance holds her tight

She can't get away.

She stops the fight

And waits for day.

She holds onto hope 

The last little bit.

She learns to cope

There was "No" hit.

So it holds her there

Holds her there forever

It only dares 

To do what keeps them together.

Until the day

It starts to die

She runs away 

And starts to cry.

There's no one around,

No one to help

She starts to drown

The cards have been dealt.
