Fifteen

The silence is deafening

The blackness so fearful

I think of my happy life

And of the night it ended

Where I was taken to that place

Of the trees and the ominous fog

It seemed to be a bad sign

But I thought nothing of it

I just wanted to have fun

But that fun disappeared when that knife came out

I hate him for it, but it's too late now

Other girls need help the help I didn't get

But this darkness consumes me

It feels like I'm drowning in it

My cold lifeless body now lies in a field

Where the breeze sways the tall grass

Once when I was young, this very grass would caress my skin

Not it seems to hit it, like how he hit me

The once clear blue sky is now a dull black

The song birds no longer sing

Only the ravens fly high above

He hid me to well

I fear I will never be found

But if other girls die, they will catch him

But he'll never let them find me

I guess murdering your niece isn't that great

But he didn't love me like a niece

He thought things about me that he shouldn't have

That's what led to my murder

I didn't love him back; I couldn't, not in that way

I was only fifteen, just a kid who wanted a life
