Lost Girl
Lost girl protects what is precious to her
Can you say the same for yourself sir
Hidden pockets of misery and divine
Islands of hope if only they could shine
Lost girl pushes away heartfelt love
Not deserved, bloodied and shoved
Unexplainable expectations she's given
A heart not beating, held broken, riven
Lost girl bites back urges to cry
A scream past parted lips, only a sigh
Shaking inside, flying apart, unraveling
Logic and reason, following, traveling
Lost girl can't tread water any longer
Deep breath, under, float, stronger
Leave behind all that exists here
Keep it safe, hidden from fear
Lost girl wants to turn back, embrace
Behind closed eyes, only her face
Accept what's been said and done
Move forwards, towards the rising sun
