Why Me

Today I learned something new, about a friend of mines

It was so heartbreaking, hearing things to do mostly with her past.

She's used to getting so much abuse from the two people.

Who brought her into this sad world we live in. Her so-called parents were both into all kinds of shit.

Never caring about the children, always living on a day to day basis.

Everything was horrible for the little girl

Who never really felt any kind of love whatsoever.

It was so sad, most of the time there was no food in the house.

And when there was, the poor girl used to get into trouble.

If she couldn't finish her food, her father used to punch her up.

Until she finished, sometimes she would hide it, whenever she could.

It was such a very sad lonely life for any child to have to go through life like this.

Her mum and dad were big-time users of every kind.

Heroin, Dope, Amphetamines, Coke, Alcohol Drink, you name it.

They most likely were taking it.

The two were like a walking pharmacy intoxicated.

That's all they cared about, getting high to the bloody eyes balls.

Drugs were always the number one priority, they just needed to score.

Nothing else was important or mattered to them.

The girl never got love, and always felt so scared.

It remained like this every day of her life.

She would come home, to see her mum and dad all doped up.

Dirty needles all around, even vomit on the ground.

It was never going to be a fairy tale for this little angel.

She lived like this for many years.

She grew up in a home without love, care or even this smallest kind of thought.

She was living a nightmare of hell.

Her everyday thoughts were always the same. Questioning herself saying why? why me?

What have I done?

Now she's all grown up, lives on her own.

Life is difficult for her at times.

As her past creeps in some of the time.

She pushes and plods on, never giving in.

It's hard but at end of the day, she's been through so much.

That the only thing it really taught her, was how to remain strong.
