Sandra jacks - Loveless life.

A simple man once told me,
as i stood on the road of life,
while holding my big box of happiness,
trying to pick out,
all the bad and the strife,
he said' if you live in a house,
and its beautiful amazing and new,
it will mean absolutely nothing,
if the foundation is infested with,
rats and bugs,
things eating it inside the walls,
do you understand child,
do you know what I'm saying? '

I stared at him,
with my,
glossed over eyes,
the ones that say,
' hey dude,
get out of my mind'
I was so sure,
of myself,
with my glossed over face,
the one that told everyone,
i was in my right place.

He simply smiled and patted my head,
for to him I was a child,
he looked into my eyes,
and saw me for who i was,
he new my life hadn't been fair,
it was a life with no love.
