Sienna’s Song
It was a song for Sienna
Feigning comfort I could not give
It was a moment of solitude
When she turned her face away
From the music I wrote for her
The simple melodies I sang to her
I wrote it all out
In melodies both tortured and true
As repentant chords moaned on
The sound hurt her ears
And reopened her scars
Lyrics meant to soothe
Haunted every scar within her
It was a song for Sienna
That now I wished I never wrote
But the damage is done now
And I take my rightful place
In a world she wanted no part of
Haunted by demons we could not break.
