Some Girl

She's 16 years old and the life within Swells her body that once was thin. It aches and throbs and strains her back It yearns for weed and pines for crack Her sunken eyes inside her head Had led her to a strangers bed. She had the baby born and bred He thirsts for milk but must be fed 2ml of crack a day. How could she throw her life away? She's 14 years old her hair in curls Her cheeks are flushed A pretty girl Her parents Wore her like a prize and thought that money made them wise. Her wardrobe spills with glorious dresses. The house for show all that impresses. Soon Possessions replaced Their presence. In its place a heap of presents. She had the world all she desired but felt abandoned and pulled away Her new found friends all led astray. From friends to family A bond so tight. It made rights wrong and wrongs seem right. No one knows When, why or how. She became that girl Two years from now.
