Smoking loops-
Under the moonlight she lay,
Gazing at the stars-
That shined so ever bright,

She felt lonely and pained,
Not because of love,
But because of 16 years of ongoing deprivation,
She had no one to confide in,

A friend would've been nice,
Family would've been better,
But it was just her-
And that stupid orphanage,

She had to cope with her fears,
Had to live with idiots,
People trying to harm her in ways,
Or even people who would judge her,

She tried innumerable times to commit suicide,
But there was no point,
What was she getting anyways,
No one to even shed a tear as they'd take her body away.
