Cinderella's Dead

IP:

A girl I know wrote this, I think it's dope and wanted to share. It's called Cinderella's Dead.

Cinderella died today... and let me be honest, I care, even though I pretend I don't/

My feelings bleed through my seemingly tough skin and soak the ground/ weaving a river of denial that separates you and I/

I take out the tool-kit I keep inside my heart and try to build a bridge/ but your chainsaw of gut instict cuts it to pieces, and I watch the shards float down the river of my discontent/

You made an SOS sign out of sticks and stones/ It said "i Don't fEel the sAme way, Darling."/

Those sticks and stones didn't break my bones/ but I wish they would have killed me/ Death seemed so much better than facing you through red-rimmed eyes/

But the sun kept setting/ the people kept dying/ my eyes kept crying/but I kept going/

Be content with your painted-on faces/ the Beautiful Ones who can lie/ and abuse you/So let them/ you like it/

They found the body/ a gagged and bounded sunken treasure/ lying cold and broken at the bottom of that blood-red river/
