At 12 she gave up on love,
She said it was a lie the foolish told.
When push cam to shove,
They said she gave up on the world.
But that was a lie.
All she wanted was stars.
They said that's like asking for the sky,
but she knew they were wrong because she had the scars.
At 13 she gave up on them.
She said they werent real friends.
She was ready to let go of the flower stem.
They siad she gave up on happy ends.
But that was a lie.
All she wanted was stars.
They said that's like asking for the sky,
but she knew they were wrong because she had the scars.
At 14 she gave up on him.
And at 14 she gave up on the stars,
because only he could give them to her.
I really like that poem! But I think that the whole scars line is a little too long, maybe split it in half somewhere? I dont know, but its really good!
