Life of A Child, Damned and Forgotten

Sat, 05/03/2014 - 21:25 -- kmcole

I try my best

To keep them pleased

It's not good enough

To meet their needs

 

For I am the child

That ruined it all 

Took their youth

Made them fall

 

I try my best

To make them proud

Just to mess up 

And make them doubt

 

Half the time 

I feel forgotten

Nothing spent, not even a dime

I feel I'm just a sin

 

They say one thing

And turn right around

And take the moment that makes me sing

And stomp it in the ground

 

Why must this be?

Why is it so?

This I cannot see

This I do no know
