Once I wasn't born
And we weren't there
Once I had no family
But death's gloomy stareOnce I got out barely
No one seemed to care
If anything they hated me
Watched me with despairOnce I didn't want to
They pulled me away
Privilege to live
No choice but to stayOnce it was all perfect
To a stranger's eye
Pain, sadness, and fear
Tears that wouldn't dryOnce I was a mistake
Something had gone wrong
Had to put up a fake smile
Beautiful and strong*Unfinished
