She was never afraid
Never scared of the judgement of man
Until reality crashed upon her.
And she holds her heart in her hands, but not offered.
The salty tears dripping onto the wounds that decorated her body
The world threw you from innocence.
But she didn't break from the fall.
But the world saw her sorrow
Saw her shame and her self-blame
And the wilted flower she became
Her soul wept with all its worth.
She never saw how brave she was
When she stood.
And when she loved
Because she knew giving was useless when it would only end in tears.
But she gave.
She ignored the terror that tried to consume her very being.
A smile crossed her face
Don't tell me she doesn't deserve happiness.
She is the most worthy, even if she doesn't believe it.
And even is she feels lifeless
She blooms, so the world won't worry
