She stares into the distance
With eyes dark and empty
Her innocence long forgotten
Forced to grow up suddenly
Unable to see through the tears
In constant agony and anguish
She never gets a moment of peace
The memories fresh in her mind
No love, no compassion
Just a duty and obligation
Tired and defeated, she signs
Little by little she cuts
Feeling sleepy she closes her eyes
As warm liquid pours from her wrists
HELP FIGHT THIS INJUSTICE, SAY NO TO CHILD BRIDE.
