Never really able to connect with people. Because that was the only choice

Lives have always entered my life

They came and went as they pleased

They knew they would not be here long

Why should I share myself

Knowing they would be gone...



Come at night

come by day

always coming and going

early on I had to be strong

Self taught, Feeling alone

Hello, Good bye!

I must stand strong!



Giving what they wanted

What they needed

Knowing they would only feed Them selves

Thinking they were strong

Knowing they would not belong

Did they know I would be the one

Who was not strong

Did I give up and give in

Thinking I was strong



Never asked always gave

I must not connect

This will make me strong!

Always hiding in the corner

When they were leaving

Saying to my self

I must be strong!!!
