Breathe

first cry

Take a breath

Slowly go to sleep

All alone in the dark

Fall to your knees and weep

Woke up in a nightmare

Tiny hands get used

A sliver of light in the darkness

Sickened by your dirty abuse

Trying to find a bond

A way to make it right

Hiding what I’m taking

Why is the light so bright?

You wanted these to touch

You wanted them for you

Taking them from me

That boy got nothing true

Questions don’t get answered

Everything is grey

Lighten the black night

I’m clearly not okay

Back to the beginning

What did I do to fate

Why did being born

Make everyone so full of hate
