Prisoner of Pain

Over and over she thought about
Didn’t know how to say out loud,
The pain, the tears, and the worries she had.
She was scared. She was alone.
“Is it worth it in the end?”
She kept asking herself.
“My pain keeps me as a prisoner 
You know what I mean?”

“Yes I do know pain can be that way at times,
But you can’t give up at all!”
She told herself.
“Pain is nothing more but a sickness
That is why you can find things to give you life.”
She kept fighting for life.
Years kept passing by,
As loneliness kept getting closer to her.

Big dramatic experience she went through in life.
Sixteen years old girl finds out 
She is pregnant.
What!? How!? 
NO! Not him please not him.
She kept repeating it in her head.
Can it actually be him?

Even more she wanted to die.
Even more everyone kept pushing her over the edge.
“ I can’t let them win over my baby girl.”
She told herself ones more.
“My child cannot grow up not knowing me.”
So she kept on living her life.
She proved them wrong.

She stand up to the prison guard 
She didn’t let pain keep her in prison of past
She found a way in life
She kept trying,
As once she read a quote,
“Being defeated is often 
A temporary condition.
But giving up is what makes 
It permanent.” 
That is what she kept as a lesson in life 
At least for her child she kept moving on.
