She was beautiful, no doubt

Chocolate brown hair

Beautiful baby blue eyes

Shining in the summer sky

Her beast was a man

He never wanted to be cruel

He always wanted to love

And he did

They were like happy endings

Only more tragic

She died

And he didn't

Her beauty still shone after death

As she looked at him from above

A man who was beast

Who can never love again

She walk through the halls

Wearing a smile

Holding onto her books

She whispered to herself

"Smile brightly, they won't know"

That smile was fake

No one noticed

Girls envied

Boys drooled

Within a nightmare come to life

Her only last words

We're the fake happiness she once had

Knock Knock

Who's there

A girl who cried in despair

Her heart was crushed

Her feelings was destroyed

Within the wooden door

You will hear them call

"A girl who was once young and loved, turned old and cold"

Whenever you knock on the door

You'll hear her call

There was once a family of four:

A mother

A father

A brother

And a sister

Sins run in this family

The father killed

The mother slept

And the brother sold

There was only one who has been faithful

And it was the sister

She, who shines with beauty

Smiles through the darkest times

She who bound the family together

Was now gone

Stolen in the midnight summer

The hot breeze turned cold

And bit by bit, the family broke away

There was once a family of four

And the only person binding them together

Was a girl who was sent back to the lord
