Listen to me
Walk along side me
Hear the story I have to tell
They say age brings knowledge
I pray that this is true
I have many things to tell you

There once was a girl
Whom danced and skipped with glee
If you haven’t guessed this girl was me
She was plump but pink and pretty
She laughed and smiled at everything
She was the most innocent

One day she met a boy she knew
He had sat beside her, learning two plus two
She trusted him when she shouldn’t of
He hurt her and ripped her body in half
She was lost, destroyed, and bruised
Her world was taunted and dark
Everything was falling apart

Around this time she met a boy
He was a little strange and very coy
She cared for him a lot but was afraid
She didn’t want him to know
Because he was too far away
She didn’t believe things could work
But he stayed around and that was enough
That’s when they fell in love
They had many hardships, so many ups and downs
But she was so very sure everything would be fine
She was betrayed, when he began to lie
She trusted him when she was told not to
He hurt her and did things that made her cry
Still she stayed and prayed for everything to work
He left her and she thought her heart would never mend

This whole time she had a man that wanted to be more than a friend
He wanted her happy and he wanted her heart to mend
But she ignored his words and continued to pretend
She began to do things that weren’t right
Then someone told her that he cared but he was a liar
She was so needy and alone she ran to him with open arms
Not even stopping to care about what she was about to do
This was a huge mistake, so wrong in many ways
He used her body, when her mind had had enough
She gave in, giving up love and trust
For a little nightly lust

She dreamt of the one that left her every night
Praying to her gods that everything would be alright
Her love came back and spoke her out of her insanity
And she awoke with a startled cry as if she had died
He loves her still, but there are many things to face
The past is something you cannot just erase

Listen to me
Walk along side me
These are my memories
The very things that haunt me
I have to make decisions on my own
But my choices will not affect me alone
They say age brings knowledge
I pray that this is true
I have many things, I must do
