~†Princess with Scars†~

Sometimes she falls to pieces

When it's all too much

But no one is ever there

To pick the pieces up

She lies in ruins

Until she has the strength

To pull herself together

As tears fall like rain

Blood red drops

Streaking her face

Staining her soul

The scars that will forever remain

Her dreams fade more each day

The stars in her eyes dim

Yet still she clings to her dying dreams

Reaching out a shaking hand from the pain within

As she sits and bleeds

She slips away from reality

Floating into a dark oblivion

Everything fading gradually

She never stops bleeding

She is a walking open wound

Sometimes she wishes

She would just die and escape her gloom

Cast into the shadows

This princess with scars

Her soul is a prisoner

Behind invisible bars

Who will rescue her?

Who will set free this maiden who bleeds?

Who could ever give a scarred princess

All the love she needs?
