There once lived a girl
all alone in the world,
with no one to call a family
she has no place to call a home
like I said, she's all alone
and this story of her's is a tragedy.

Wandering the streets
with nothing to eat
to the side walk is where she retreats.
Yet food is a must
this life is a bust
but this girl will not face defeat.

She's been searching for her mother for years
the only person she truly holds dear.
She can't face the fact that her mother abandoned her
for mother is god in a child's eyes
but her mother didn't care if she lived or died.

So she continues walking
down these dark and dangerous streets
looking around she see's nothing but creeps
they offer her a place to stay
but she's not stupid, she runs away.

This girl is older now
and has changed her life.
She went to school
and fought a good fight.

She has a home now and a family of her own
letting go of her past...letting EVERYTHING go.
Her family is all she need's to know!

Dedicated in a cryptic way to my amazing and kind hearted  mother of whom I love very much!
