"Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself." Henry Miller

Her bones are weak,
Like shards of glass.
Her heart lays pumping
But just won't last
Medicines life to take away her pain,
But today we've saw that medicine can't be tamed.
That medicines wild,
Fire in the wind
Burning down every heart found home
It's uncontrollabe
A change of destiny out of reach
Not even the best medicine can be tamed....
Medicines out of her control
Out of her reach
She'll die
Everyone can see her eyes glazing over
A pale face as they watch her ill
The feeling of her beat decreasing as they hug her
It isn't going to work
It just isn't meant to be

The author's comments:
A couple lines were popping into my head so I grabbed a pen, jotted down some notes and it came out ok. It does have reason to it, but I don't feel like going into teenage drama. Please comment though! :)
