See Me

See Me
See me for who I am and not for what I do.
See me for the beautiful soul that I am.
I was once a good girl like you.
See me and don't pretend that you don't as you look the other way.
Its easier for you to pretend I don't exist than to face the reality that is sadly at play.
I don't want to do the things I do but this is the only life I've been taught and know.
So please don't cast the first stone at me unless your as pure an innocent as the winter snow.
See me and stop to pray for me or to lend out a hug in need.
For when you do I remember the love and the day you planted that seed.
Survival Sex is how I live and until I can get to a point where I want to love Me.
Don't be afraid to offer your help and open your heart to SEE ME!!!!!
