My life is cake with rose pedal icing

A picture can say a thousand words yet stay still through the night
A rose tells a story no one else could guess
I tell you one thing but think of something
So I like strangers
If I had a phone I'd probably vent to random numbers
til they hung up and left me
I am not crazy just sad
By life, school, boys
Like every person would.
I realize once I late for pretty much everything
Excuses come in little black boxes wrapped in tree stems
A story that has no ending
Eternity I run and try so hard not cry
My story has been told a million times
but no one sees how this one is different
Dad was a drunk and left
Beat my ass seventy times a day
They got a divorce and he never came around
Adopted into a world unknown
rising to the top I meet part of my old life
2 months old left somewhere like I was trash
Guess shes not right or something
Honestly girl have six kids and cant even keep one
Neglected by a stranger then turn 16
and everyone decides to tell me about it.
I dont need you
But this was my story
heard a million times
Whatever im through grown up
About to move away
Far away try and be happy is all I can do
Thank you for listening but probably never reading
Skimming through the lines Just so you cant hear weeping
My tears are never wasted on lifes short paths
Only the long ones I have come to see
My ast was me
My present is me
And Future is what I hope to be
