sometimes you get away with a mistake and other times life forces you to watch the one you love, love some one else......


Swallow your pride
bow to your master

their words mocked
my tears and my weakness

I knew their plans
to sell and use me

but like a scarred little girl
I sat back and let it happen

just like millions of others
had before me

the government over looks us
we are forgotten, non existent

we had families and friends... but now we are nothing less than air
