I could never tell you everything
How I was passed around from boy to boy
Always used as a toy
Made me feel like a Whore
Dirty all around
Skin falls from my arm as the knife goes in
My way to forget
Filling my lungs With smoke
Spinning into a cold dark Hell
I have come so far since then
Now with the man I love
Who never used me
Learning to stand on my own two feet
There are days when I think about the past
When I was a doll to all the boys around
Sometimes I still feel like i'm nothing
But then I close my eyes
And remember how far I have come
The story of one girl
Will be in the past
Author notes
I have been through so much
after three boys i knew passed me around makeing me do many things.And by forgeting that I started to cut and smoke. I have come so far. and I will never go back to being a toy.I'll stand on my own
