let there be wings
upon this soul.
let there be a way
in which she
can reach her goal.
dont leave her crying
silently dying
pick her up
and carry her.
there was only one set
of footprints on the beach
where is that one set now?
you tell me to believe
and i ask you
how, just how.
did nobody tell you
she's not breathing
daring to move
she is just a barely
there at all.
you may think
that her smile is big
and she is laughing
but, just becuase she's smiling
doesn't mean a thing.
drama queen
mightly obscene
love her or hate her
just dont let her go.
it isnt fair you know
to go chasing dreams
and leaving her here
on a linolium tiled floor
holding onto
her teddy bear.
her hair is strewn 
about her face
stuck in tears
black marks that wont erase.
trace teh path down her cheek
you can see it
in the right light.
carving a river on her face
every night.
hold her won't you?
wont you help?
how can you just step 
over her body
convulsing in pain.
pray for wings.
pray for her salvation
she loves you
you do know this.
she tried to hide
and she almost died.
and now something
has set he a skew
when all she wanted
in the world was
to begin a new.
