give me one
reason to stay
i am not here
for you to play
i want
my life back
i'm sorry
for what you lack
you took my independence
self worth and pride
stripped me of all dignity
my sexuality died
dehumanized me
your slave
never free
subserviant
is what you called me
women never should of been allowed
to vote, or speak independently
i did good
on my own
work,school
raised a child all alone
you put down
all i can do
make me worthless
like i am nothing to you
i love you
and i forgive
but must move on
my time TO LIVE

Marsha~
Moving forward is a good move ... you'll regain your self esteem and your personal net worth will increase a thousand fold~

Poignant emote ... now ... forward~
