With bruises on her face from a guy who does harm
With tears that softly roll down her face
Who feels nothing more than shame and disgrace
With ragged clothes and messy hair
With a head full of voices that aren't really there
With a cigarette in hand and no shoes on her feet
With only enough money to make it through the week
With scars on her body and a few broken bones
Who shivers from the cold as she lives on the streets alone
Who sells herself to get money for food
Who knows a beating will again come soon
I spy a girl who quickly gave up
Who will never again know the feeling of trust
Who will never know about true love
Who hopes that the next guy will pay her enough
I spy a girl who takes drugs to make it through the day
Who has convinced herself that this is the only way
Who believes the next guy will treat her right
But finds out she's wrong with each beating at night
I spy a girl who is well known
Who lives a lifestyle that is clearly shown
The name for this girl cannot be told
This poem is real and maybe cold. [comments] => 8 [counter] => 211 [topic] => 21 [informant] => CuttersAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Hollywood's Horror

I spy a girl with cuts on her arm
With bruises on her face from a guy who does harm
With tears that softly roll down her face
Who feels nothing more than shame and disgrace
With ragged clothes and messy hair
With a head full of voices that aren't really there
With a cigarette in hand and no shoes on her feet
With only enough money to make it through the week
With scars on her body and a few broken bones
Who shivers from the cold as she lives on the streets alone
Who sells herself to get money for food
Who knows a beating will again come soon
I spy a girl who quickly gave up
Who will never again know the feeling of trust
Who will never know about true love
Who hopes that the next guy will pay her enough
I spy a girl who takes drugs to make it through the day
Who has convinced herself that this is the only way
Who believes the next guy will treat her right
But finds out she's wrong with each beating at night
I spy a girl who is well known
Who lives a lifestyle that is clearly shown
The name for this girl cannot be told
This poem is real and maybe cold.

A really really sad poem...... such terrible things should never happens to a girl, nor anyone..... do you say this poem is for real? Well, then i really hope that girl will find a better life and that special person next day......

I am not saying there is hope for your soul, or no hope. That is not up for anyone but our higher species to decide.

This poem made me think of the girl on the other side of the street. I've seen her, and I've been her. It takes someone strong to survive, but it takes someone stronger to know when it's her time to shine...

Well sometimes the truth hurts. I don't know who thinks it's their job to judge u but life isn't a bowel cherios and the ones doing the judging could propbaly hand a person enuff money to get a life off the street. In their judging u 4 writing truth then some how it focus off themselves.
Keep writing as u wrote this like a pro.
Joke who ever's trying to discourage u writing.
Great job!
luv, huggs, truth,

The soul there is no hope for is the one who turns away from such need...you are calling attention to a problem...and it is a strong good write
