Nov 2011
Young, inspired, aspirations endless
Wide eyed and trusting
She was made helpless.
Small, quiet and forgiving
She’ll be overpowered by selfishness

A world of hate and its power-hungry inhabitants
Turning the innocent into warriors of civilization

Is it unfair that she sits and wonders where all the greatness of imagination went.
There is no such thing as fair and unfair, there’s only patience.
As she takes the time to dissect her morals she’ll begin to see how the rules became bent
Prejudice bullies, sinners, killers, and racists.

She’ll search for holes in the system, attempting to stay legal
Good to bad and better to evil.
That is what our society demands if she wants to remain equal.
