Maria!


I had a friend name Maria who was 16 years old she was a lost soul traveling down a dark lonely road Her mom was on drugs, her dad didn't care she never got love cause nobody was there her parents separated when she was 4 years old that was around the time her heart turned cold she grew up in a dysfunctional broken household living a hopeless life if the truth is told but she went to school and got good grades did everything for herself, attention pays everyday praying for them better days looking for love in all the wrong places falling in love not thinking of the worst cases started dating Shawn the neighborhood kingpin he got her pregnant then she started going off the deep end Shawn got mad cause he wasn't ready for a baby but yet he was the only one sexing her crazy on the bathroom floor, Maria had her baby she was a strong girl, imagine her as a lady to a handsome baby boy, Maria gave birth Shawn left leaving her depressed and hurt she went to the hospital just to get tested HIV Positive, her life got hectic then she cries on the hospital bed many crazy thoughts are going through her head so she walks with her baby and throws him in the dumpster realizing what she had done made her feel like a monster she made bad decisions, but had good intentions love & hope was all she was missing had enough of no love, so her heart was getting weak overdosed on drugs, my friend Maria Rest In Peace.
