Cold emotions and an empty smile,
The stone dead heart hasn't beat in a while.
The bloods pooled already on the floor,
Her dulled eyes looking for the door,
The only way she could see to escape
The never-ending torrent of abuse and hate.
A life of loving and learning led astray.
Another number thought of no other way.

A simple glance that says everything,
Another queen never to find her king.
The knife's under the window light,
Framed by a streak shining bright.
The glint of a reflection catches the eye,
White clouds and birds pass on by,
Life goes on for the others by her side
Whilst she runs, and in the darkness hides.


Her eyes are gently brushed shut,
The blanket drawn over the fatal cut.
Words of peace and love whisper out
Sounding in the silence like a shout.
The syringes are collected without sound,
The wires carefully coiled and bound.
For the paramedics its just another job,
From the family just a whimpered sob.
