Dangling

She grew up,in a beautiful house.
Beautiful from the outside.
But behind closed doors,
there lies utter darkness.
the darkness of violence,
of pain,of everything gone wrong.

The doors were slammed shut,
tears filled the hollowness of the night,
as she cried herself to sleep.
hoped one day it would be over,
that one day it would get better.
She's living on the edge,
she'll fall off someday.
