Analysis of Unscathed Until She Wasn’t
She lived in her home
Him by her side
Ignorantly bliss
At the truth behind his eyes
She stayed innocent
Until the age of four
When he touched her
Left her crying on the floor
From that point forward
He was no longer kind
He left her broken and trembling
Trapped and living in her mind
