Many Years *

Many years ago,

As you can see,

I was a happy girl,

So careless and free,

Many years ago,

I had a mother,

Who I held dear,

We loved each other,

Many years ago,

One by one,

People would tell me,

I'm no fun,

Many years ago,

I would rarely cry,

But, I didn't hate myself,

Or want to die,

Many years ago,

I felt no pain,

I had a great life,

And much to gain,

But, you know where I stand today?

I wish to kill myself,

I want to die,

I hate myself,

I always cry,

My mother dislikes me,

I am not happy,

And, I am broken,

But no one will come to get me,

And, those many years that I once told?

They're only memories,

That will never again unfold,

And who's to blame for all that's new?

No one expect the person who stares back at me,

That's who.
