Did this one a while back. When I first wrote it, I thought it was pretty good, but now that I've (arguably) "grown," I don't know. I think it could use some editing... What do you guys think?
Sanctuary
All sorts of pain has been thrown at thee,
And it hurts, oh-so-damn much.
She can't help but desperately flee,
She jerks and twitches at the slightest touch.
She flies to the safety of her room,
Breathing in a familiar air.
Content and distant from the face of gloom,
Thanking the gods for her cramped lair.
Now, she cries all that she wants,
She's free 'cause no one will hear.
At least she's away from all those taunts,
Blurting out secrets that she holds oh-so-dear.
She will cry, she will rant, she will dream,
She locks up in her only safe haven.
And no matter how caged the girl may seem,
In those four corners she's as free as a raven.
