Trap of Sanity
by
Emma - Louise Braiden
A heavy head with long, dark hair
Is laid softly on her arm
Her eyes are red, she doesn't care
At least her world is calm
To long her eyes are open wide
She sees the crap around her
For now she will turn aside
Never will she stir
Another day, another tear
Shed secretly in the dark
Her growing hate turns into fear
Which in turn makes its mark
To know you is a burden
To love you is a chore
For now she pulls the curtain
And quickly shuts the door
She cries, away
She screams, don't stay
She begs for you to leave
Yet all you do is smirk and glare
It's another trap you weave.
