Down the Street

Her pale,fragile body,
lies down the street.
Who could do such a thing?
Leave her so hurt and beat.
People stop and stare,
just pass her by,
and leave her there.

Her cold Gray eyes,
look so high above,
never leaving the deep gray skies.
Her dreams of a future,
so far out of touch.
The only family that cared,
would miss her so much.
Yet, she never shared,
the truth about her boyfriend,
how he beat her black and blue.
She thought it would fade just like a trend,
but if only she had a clue.

Now she lies down the street,
her boyfriend did such a thing,
left her hurt and beat.
She takes her last breath,
swallows deep,
hoping for a peaceful death.
