She

I look back at old photographs of myself and I cry for the girl in the pictures She was once so full of life and love She had hopes and dreams to chase Completely unaware of how shitty the hand life had dealt her would be And that nomatter how she played her cards nothing good ever came of it Life ripped her heart out and poisoned all her hopes and dreams Just chewed her up and then spit her right back out Left her broken and battered, lonely and lost And even though she has fought her way out of the depths of hell Many more times than any one person should have to It still breaks my heart when I look back on who I was before SHE was forced to emerge from the ashes 💔
