Rock Bottom

She wanders the streets alone

just trying to find a home

whether in another's' arms

or in a family heart

why her?

why was she the one left behind?

she was always the good one

straight a's and straight edge

nice and smart

she was the one with the huge heart

from a home to a box

from a cry to a sob

she never got used to anything

everything just got worse

although how could anything be worse than this?

terrified

cold

hungry

alone

part of her feels as if she has hit

rock bottom

so...

how could anything be worse?
