Your world is fragile glass <br />Every day breaking like bones <br />Against the heartless pavement <br />Of this dingy city where dreams disappear <br />In the blink of an eye <br />Like a thousand species <br />Growing extinct <br />In the dying rainforest. <br /> <br />Divorce and disintegrating family life <br />Stole from you a happy childhood <br />With the malicious hands <br />Of a marauding thief, <br />You were never a little girl. <br /> <br />Next time I see you <br />Stranded on some dirty street <br />In the hopeless dawn <br />With no fuel in your tank <br />To get back home, <br />Take my twenty free, <br />I won’t bother you for sex.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-were-never-a-little-girl/
