Neglected for breathing my truth.
Neglected for natural smiles.
Neglected for tears over time.
Neglected for a competitive will.
Neglected for warmth turning cold.
Neglected for protecting my soul.
Neglected for a brain breaking involuntarily.
Neglected for speaking of heartache.
Neglected for acknowledging complexities.
Neglected for fragile softness.
Neglected for hardening after breaking.
Neglected for setting boundaries.
Neglected for bargaining with death.
Neglected for not accepting that “it could’ve been worse,”
Neglected for choosing passion over money.
Neglected for earning the spotlight.
Neglected for wanting to be invisible.
Neglected, always neglected.
Why is it so natural to ignore me?
You live your lives; why can’t I?

"MULTIVERSE IN TIME"
I chose this song as I have been singing this tune as an eccentric eclectic artist as a woman of 74 years of age. i am not your conventional old lady nor was your conventional young lady. I am a free spirit of sorts. I am empath who have met many patriarchal societies of many men who were so into their manly egos of testosterones without a tear and thought they could control me as a human being. I choose to walk in the light, to care about humanity. If that is political or Godly and they don't like that about me so, be it. It is a good day today. This was written because it's not all about me, but other women in the same situations.
