A few lines of a sad realization
HELPLESS AS A LITTLE GIRL
LONELY, FRIGHTENED, INSECURE
CANNOT MAKE HER WAY THROUGH LIFE
WITHOUT FEELING THE BLADE OF LIFE'S KNIFE
AND THOUGH SHE FEELS SHE STANDS ALONE
IN A LARGE WORLD SHE IS JUST A CLONE
HER HARDSHIPS ARE NOTHING DIFFERENT
THAN THOSE TO WHOM SHE'S CONFIDED IN
ALL HER EXPECTATIONS FOR ATTENTION ARE AT EASE
FOR SHE NO LONGER STANDS OUT FROM HER DISEASE
NOT ONLY IS SHE SAD AND BLUE
BUT WRETCHEDLY NORMAL-
LIVING LIFE THE SAME AS ME AND YOU
