Don'T Judge
Don't judge,
that little girl in a white dress,
smoking a cigarette,
by the young age of 10,
at 11 when puberty hits,
she'll be up to a half a pack.
Don't judge,
when at 12 masturbation,
turns into sex,
at 13 her long blonde hair,
is short and black,
by 14 shes up to a full pack.
Don't judge,
when at 15 she's,
smoking more than cigarettes,
16 and every things pierced,
by 17 she's ready and willing,
to do anything and everything.
Don't judge,
the choice that she,
made at 18,
or 19 when she made the switch,
from dudes to chicks,
20 and having trouble,
I started cutting things,
to help things make sense,
21 my first diagnosis,
I forget what it's called,
my head is sick.
22, smoking like a chimney,
lost 23 to booze and speed,
24 and still no sleep,
hospitalization at 25,
26 back on the streets,
trying to survive,
27, lucky to be alive,
28 and her luck runs dry,
don't sympathize,
the way she lived her life.
Don't judge,
and don't forget,
when you see a little girl,
in a white dress,
smoking a cigarette,
whatever the age,
no need for regret,
or anybody's judgement.
