Love Cast Out

Cast out and ashamed People did not mention her name She roamed the streets Scavenged to eat In a judgemental world That saw her as weak For loving someone that she shouldn't And though she was cast out he was allowed To carry on his unhindered She though he loved her But he considered sticking by her And being cast out too Was just too much for him to do So he left to face this life alone And remains in the comfort of his warm and loving home Because he was forgiven And she was punished No she roams this life diminished Without even that love or memory of it too hold on to And it left her angry, bitter and confused And through the dirt that smeared her face And her clothes that were such a ragged disgrace The remained a feminine beauty hidden beneath The wild exterior that now exists And that she needs to survive on these streets And her dry eyes no no longer have the capacity to weep And sadly she has lost all her belief In love and humanity.
