Her heart grows restless Rest is a word from the past
Passing from childhood has made her truant Truancy a badge youth prides Pridefully she wore her beauty and youthYouthful longings and pleasures she sought Seekers easily find recalcitrant love
Love that thrives on the blood of innocence Innocence, the sacrificial lamb of maturityMature though she grew yet she pines for the ravagerRavaging lips that plundered her body endlessly Endless tugs at her earlobes, restless the serpent exploredExploring, his voice grew hoarse, “I love you!” he saidSayings have a way of winning tremulous hearts over Overhead an angel shed tears as he envisioned her painPainful was the moment when he left without a wordWordlessly she watched his indifferent retreat Retreating into a shell the girl is now a shadow of herself
Self-destruction who do the youth seek it out eagerly?Eager as moths that rush towards flames hastening their deaths?
