Why can’t she get back up?

Why can’t she get back up?

She falls toward him

She crawl’s away from him

But she is to slow

She goes into another world

Where her Fairy tale’s live

But in reality she is hurting

She wants to be like all the other girl’s her age

But she can’t

She wants to tell

But she can’t

She wants to know who

But she can’t

She wants to know why

But she can’t

The only thing left to do

Is weep

She lost her confidence

She lost her soul

She once smiled

A beautiful smile

She once laughed

A beautiful laugh

Now she frown’s

An ugly frown

Now he smiles

An evil smile

Now he laughs

A guilty laugh

She want’s to get up

But she can’t

So she lies there

Letting him tear her emotions up in side

She is afraid

Afraid of what he might do next

Why cant she get back up?
