Once upon a time there was a little girl
Her life was empty and filled with pain
Everyday she lived in fear
Afraid of what her father would do to her
The abuse and torment she lived through the years
Her father had a temper and would take it out on her
The bruises he gave her everyday
He ignored her screams and cries
He would have left her to die
She saw the hate in her father's eyes
Whenever he looked at her
One day this girl got a knife
And sliced her skin on her arms
She cut away the pain
She cut away the tears
She cut away the anger
She couldn't feel the pain inside
But the cuts that she made on her arms
Were deep,too deep
And when her father came home to beat her
He found her body on her bed
Her arms covered in blood and no pulse rate
