While she sat frozen in a forest of snow and silence
Her eyes were sealed shut with ice
Once full of so much life and hope
Now she lay in a lifeless sleep
One could only imagine the fear that had filled her heart
As she sat alone, with only the trees to keep her company
the silence in that forest was deadly
It meant no one was looking for her
Nobody cared enough to find the runaway
A runaway that, some may say, is now better off
Bruises on her body didn't come from the snow or the woods
It was her father who said he loved her, and left
It was her mother who had to let it out
She let her anger, pain, sorrow, everything fall onto one girl
The snow flakes held onto the girl
They gave her love
Love she was deprived of at home
But the love they offered her was a trap
The comfort was needed, and it was delivered
But the source of the love was so cold and misleading
It froze her to death
It froze her tears and bruises along with her soul
Her life was an ambiguous book
Was she better tortured and living
Or dead but free
While she sat frozen in a forest of snow and silence
