Kept in the dark
for so many years
nobody would tell her
confirm her worst fears

She struggled and tried
being all that she could
"we'll make it work"
she "knew" that they would

All of the beauty
that so brightly had glown
soon to be gone
though she'd never known

Chasing a dream
that wasnt quite there
so real was her love
that wasnt quite shared

What a beautiful thing
to simply throw out
have taken for granted
her candle blown out

Years have soon past
and still getting worse
"it cannot be true"
this cannot be cursed

All of the hurt
all of the pain
building inside her
forced through her viens

It's finally ending
with some needed help
from someone who cares
who knows how she felt

Pray for her I will
that her heart may someday
accept much needed love
and realize it can stay

Know how real it can be
like the way it once was
something inside you
more than the old fuzz

Now its time to prepare
for the rest of her life
shes on her way up
through the clouds she sees light

A heart once tarnished
soon ready to shine
to be bright once again
for whats down the line

Shes on her way up now
flying with brand new wings
such a beautiful sight
my heart for her sings

I really like the message behind this one...the rhyme is wonderful and it flows pretty smoothly throughout except for a few lines that could us a nip and a tuck, otherwise a wonderful piece of work
