Careless

A battered life, The shedding of a thousand tears, Love wasn't an option for me anymore. The thought of suicide drove through my mind, Crazing me to not give a care about myself, Or how I exposed myself to all those men. I was careless, didn't care, didn't respect them....or myself at that. A broken dream, The pieces of my life tossed and burned, A doorway past a disastrous deceit. But still for those men I stood nakedly, They touched me in places I couldn't believe, None of this was a nightmare but reality. I was careless, had no regretes, and took everything for granted. A desire for attention, The swirling of my body onto a mans lap, A stage for me to occupy. I didn't want to do it, sell my body for money, But there were two little boys counting on me, So I did what any desperate mother would do. I was careless, lost my pride, lost my virginity all to my prostitution and got my 2 kids taken from there only hope in life. CARELESS DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE!!!!!
