I Just Needed To Get This Out

Regret has become a vindictive old friend We’ll go hand and hand until my cold bitter end And as hard as I try to fake and pretend These holes in my heart I’ll never fully mend All these men They feel free to mistreat my body In the mirror, I can’t see the carefree girl I used to be SET ME FREE LET ME FLEE TO ESCAPE TO RELIEVE I don’t believe I’ll see days where I’m not bogged down in a haze I just crave a safe space Some peace thru this unending pain Everyday it’s the same People don’t seem to change I’m estranged and deranged My brain it daily deteriorates But still, can’t complain Got a roof when it rains And the bills they get paid While single mothers they slave Slave away, for better days Can’t even get to a place to put some savings away Why this world just breeds hate They’ll even spit in your face This human race I’m displaced Can’t find a trace of some kindness or faith Can I leave? Is this a dream? OH PLEASE, GOD. WAKE. ME.
