Picture Perfect
A shattered destiny with an attempt that failed
Razor wire wrapped around her skin,
Pulled tight
My memories stick to me like photographs of the past,
Scarring me
Never the thought of how her fate cultivated
Her life flashed before my eyes,
And there I was on my knees crying
Wishing this were only a dream,
Covered in blood, with her body in my arms
As I spoke my last words to her,
I told her the truth,
I told her
I love you
With her last few breaths
I guess she thought she could have written down what she would have said
Only the blood was dripping down her neck
Now here she lies seventeen and dead
