for a friend
bekki

Sweet as a flower
Sharp as a thorn
Skin soft as satin
Yet bloody and torn
Family Disaster
Unloved, hurt and used
One thing could lead
To pain, beat and bruise
Broken inside
And out, head to toe
Smile like a good time
But really a show
Dead when alone
Cry self to sleep
Once was so strong
Now lost it, so weak
Everyone around her,
So goddamn perfect
Depression and sorrow
Is what her life will reflect
Pointless to go on
Hurting and hated
Heartbroken by every
Guy she has dated
Running out of faith
Struggling to live on
Suffering each day
Until she gives in
Scars will fade
But disappear never
As the memory of life
Will go on forever.
