She once was so joyful

Seven years old and invincible

Smiling faces a new friend

At least she thought

An open door a closed mind

Lies and trickery

She plays along not knowing

The poison had blossomed

Until she wakes up

The poison spreads

Shooting through her mind and heart

Delivering nothing but agony and despair

Poisonous drops coming from her eyes

No where to go

No where to hide

She runs

Hiding the poison from everyone

She acts like it's alright

Fake smiles forced laughs

Poison drops one after the other

Eating her mind

She can't take it anymore

She panics seeking immediate relief

Shoving the poison down

Down away where no one can see

Years go by

Little does she know

The poison sits waiting

Growing stronger

Then it attacks

Her world freezes

The poison is back

Pain everywhere

She tried to ignore it

But there's a war going on

She's losing. poison taking control

But she's strong

Determined to win

She's done hiding

She finally accepts it

She drips poison for days

Until finally

After years

She has won the war

She watched miraculously

The poison drips from her eyes

Drop after drop until in runs pure

She sits there in disbelief

I never though the day would come...
