No choice


 

 

 I was...

BEATEN

BATTERED

ATTACKED

ABUSED!

Entering inside of me

No permission

In

Out

In

Out

In...

Goes life

Unwanted

Small

and foreign

No choice

I have NO choice

It has to grow

this life

BORN

because I was...

beaten

battered

attacked

abused

.....

and now

forever remembered

No choice
