Silly Girl

You thought happiness exists and was yours to take?

Silly girl

You thought you could have a family to make?

Silly girl

You thought those demons, nightmares, and skeletons would stay in the closet?

You thought that darkness that feeds on your blood and looms would forget?

Silly girl

This life has chosen you as the friend of the grim reaper

Life teases you with a mirage of happiness

Taunting visions of love, family, and a life that's sweeter

A ridiculous smile, bubbly disposition, and feelings of worthiness

Happiness, love, and hope in your hand- the greatest magic trick

Your hand clenches them tightly desperately holding on

You open your hand to have a glance at them but all gone too quick

That's when you saw you're a silly girl dreaming of dreams long gone

Wishing for wishes that have long flown away

Seeing visions of love and acceptance as you look through the window

The girl inside looked like you, but you were mistaken

You're on the outside looking in on a life you do not own

Silly girl
