Petals&Tears

Petals fall from roses dying
Tears fall from eyes crying

Water running down her back
Blood trickling down her arm
Give up or live a life of pain
Must she live her life in vain?

Pounding fists against the wall
Anger building
Rising tall
Fading fast
She falls to the floor

Like petals from a dying rose
Like tears from crying eyes

Screams of terror filled her ears
Resentment in her heart
Why can't they let me be?
Why can't they let me part?

No longer can she hear a scream
Or pleading from her youngest teen
A single tear trickles down her face
Now she's gone without a trace

Gave up her life
Before it started
Now she's known as dearly departed

Read this story carefully
She gave up so easily
The pain inside
She could not bear
Now she' the cause of many a tear
