you all know that girl
the one that sits up and waits at night
she swears she can see the good in life
she lets the rush of a new love fill her heart
when she trys to back away it grabs her
and pulls her in like a lifeless demon
a blanket of smoke and toxic air
she scratches at her throat
bangs her palms against the hard floor
she lifts her head and looks for the savior everyone talks of
when will he come for her
she is trapped in a room of bile
her insides spill out of her like the plague
when will she get out
who is going to pull her from this room of despair
a scream that sounds like a laugh
a frown that looks like a smile
she hears it
it surrounds her
it covers her
it engulfs her and everything she has
this demon can't be fought of
it consumes who she is
so why does she keep fighting
give up
that poor girl
