As the dark consumed her soul
She tried to wear the mask of might
She was a very lonely girl and sole
That she built a tower far away from the sight
A far away land where she smiles from the inside out
And that's how she survived day and night
By that's instills in her deeps fear and doubt
And that's destroys her, by the weapon of sleight
Poor little girl forced to be mature
That's when everything became obscure
Those curse at her and those yell
And that was the circle of hell
The power they obtain to demolish her tower
Poor little girl she died before blooming into a flower
The power they have, what a might unjust power
The power of spoken words, oh this mighty destructive power

The author's comments:
this poem really means a lot to me, because in a personal level spoken words affected me, it doesn't show weakness but it shows that a word can change a person's life or his way of thinking so i've wrote this poem to make me stroger and to face this kind of effective weapon.
