Lily White
November 30, 2012
Lily White,
hold on tight
you're too fragile
can't you see?
too innocent, filled
with too much naivety
I want to hold you
close
never let you go
never let you
see this world
in full
Lily White,
my saving grace
you didn't hold on
enough to fight
the demons who
come out to play
at night
Lily White,
now with hollow
eyes, skeletal body
Lily White,
black and blue
with smears of red
blooming too,
What happened
to the
Lily White
I knew?
