His words so sharp. his heart so cold.
her tears they fall. her heart it shatters.
confirmed. his soul to the devil...sold.
with one sentence. her world in tatters.
he never understood just how much words torture.
she never could comprehend that eery smile.
attention. he always craved adventure.
she felt same old was worthwhile.
maybe they were never meant to be.
the tears outweighed the joys.
yet she still held on with every plea.
a crushed heart. an awful noise.
with every look & every word. loathing.
slowing this girl's world, torn at the seams.
he remembers every beating.
slowly raises his hand. witnesses the screams.
for every bruise. every ache. one more tear rolls down her cheek.
for every smile. every kiss. almost worth it.
