The Beauty and the Crippled

She was found on a winter's day Bedded down in a wooden cradle Frosty with snow in her hair A pounding heart, the need for love Purple lips with sunshine for sight She's a beauty for sore eyes Who could leave her, who could forget As the pain aching while she cries The Beauty and The Crippled Hiding in shadows, afraid of the world They hiding in shadows, lurking in corners Afraid of the world they were born in Treated like monsters, in the light of a day Something evil, to get rid of Unholy and a shame to this world Hated wrongfully mistreated Painful in dusk She was found on a winter's day A beautiful child, left for death Meant to be, forgotten like trash Thrown away, the crippled Misjudged, loving and caring Raised her like their own With love and warmth, protecting her Against the cruelty in the world The Beauty and The Crippled Hiding in shadows, afraid of the world
