I Need a Time Machine to Save a Life

[AngelOfFire]

I need to tell a young girl
That one day she will be loved.
Loved for exactly who she is;
Not for some fake image she
Invents for the world to see.

I need to tell her to wait.
She doesn't need to settle
For someone who is unworthy.
There will be a man who loves
Her body, mind and soul.
Someone who sees it all and
Wants it more than anything.

I need to tell her that she
Shouldn't damage herself so
Much that she ruins the good
Once she finally finds it.

I need to tell her not to
Ruin her life, my life.

I need to tell her not to
Do what she did today.
