A Better Life

what's wrong with you girl?
why're you wearin that frown?
you have so much potential
but you let that man put you down.
How'd you get here girl?
so far away from family?
long days and stressful hours
blinded your clarity.
I miss the person you used to be
where did that girl go?
she must be hiding under those bruises
you're trying not to show.
It doesn't have to be this way
you don't have to stay
there's a better life for you out there
I promise it will be okay.

I agree. There are many girls in this position.its like their kind of brainwashed. This poem was very well put. You should read my "What kind i do?" poem if you please, and see what I mean.................................

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
