He said, Hello beautiful one
Place the bow between your fingers and play a song for me.
You looked so lonely staring out the brothel window I just couldn't leave you be.
But, companionship is temporary
He will leave and the cycle will repeat itself.
The madam of the house warns me of how men only rely on their vices,
They may seem sweet even gentleman like but they still hide behind disguises.
Trust no one,
No matter how lonely.
Don't look down on others,
It will make you seem lowly.
Always smile,
Despite the scars.
Look alive behind the eyes,
Make them shine like stars.
Rules to follow for survival,
Always the same it makes lust seem so primal.
Make yourself look free,
Make your beauty not only appear skin deep.
One day I will leave this bird cage,
But, thinking of that day
It might be a day I will never see.
