I knew a girl once
She was as soft as an angel
She was bright as the morning sun
She was as angelic as the full moon shining in all her glory.

I once knew a girl
Her voice was like the Nightingale
Her skin fair as a rose
Her legs slender and strong
Her eyes blue like the ocean
Her hair long and sleek.

I knew a girl once
She could stand against a storm
She could fight against the tornado
She could roar like a lion and defend her pups like a grizzly bear.

But life has dragged her down with it's tentacles
Overwhelmed her with it's troubles
Choked her with it's pleasures
She got immersed in evil
Derived joy from the temptations of life
She surrendered to woes of the world
She is now like a fox
Cunning in it's way
She is a wolf looking for the innocent to prey on.

Her Eyes are now like death traps always looking for an enemy
Her voice crackles like a witch
Her tongue is vile
Her soul is dark
She's no longer who she used to be.
