You left my small frail body broken and bruised,

The roses are wilting,

The dead petals are shattering as if made of glass,

The sharp edges are ready to make me bleed,

Your fingers felt like those shards,

Touching me,

Soiling me,

Oh, beloved father,

Your fingers felt like blades,

But I was already out of blood and tears,

I have no more to give you,

Yet you want more,

Locking me away to play with you some more later,

It's all I've ever known,

All I've ever known in these five years,

I want to run away,

There's only one place I can go,

I go there everyday without your knowledge,

But I can't stay there for long,

You always drag me back,

Here,

In reality,

When I rather be locked in my mind than in this dreary basement,

In my mind,

I have a friend there,

He's an angel made of crystal,

But he's shrinking,

He's losing his tears made from my hopes and blood made from my dreams,

He's becoming so small that he won't be able protect me much longer,

He will shatter,

Just like the lifeless roses,

You come again,

You abuse me more,

My friend vanishes,

I'm alone now,

But this time,

I'm surrounded by complete darkness,

Then the light appears,

Angels surround me,

They are made of purity,

Blessing me,

I'm safe now,

You can't hurt me anymore here
