Broken Life

Sometimes people stray down the wrong paths.

Brittni wasn't quite normal but she got by,

just a bit foolish; thought nobody told a lie,

shed get lost in the look of boys from across the room,

never crossed her mind for them to touch her where she bloomed.

 

If it weren't for Jason she'd still be going straight.

She never thought she'd lose all her special AP placement,

everything would be the same without that party in the basement,

she would have laughed if you told her of the Brittni who would act as her replacement.

 

When Brittni's friend Angela told her to throw a party,

Brittni never thought that Jason would ask for something naughty.

She didn't even know what naughty meant let alone how to f**k,

but that bad mix of alcohol and ignorance didn't give her any luck.

She didn't think to say a thing when he touched between her legs,

how on earth could she have said no to a boy after the way he begged?

And she loved that surge of strange pleasure that she didn't understand,

she was surprised by what an older boy could do with just his hand.

Brittni didn't know much about how his stuff worked or even much about her own,

but the voice he used to direct her was comforting when they were alone.

 

Soon enough she found herself used by not a boy but a man,

it was even more confusing than the feeling that she didn't understand.

After quite a while she had found herself with many men,

no matter what she did for them she was just a friend.

And Brittni never would have guessed that she'd have turned to drugs,

but she also never would have thought she'd by f*****g dick-heads and thugs.

Her life started going down the wrong track,

but little Brittni was so lost she couldn't step back.

 

So she only dug deeper.

 

Before she even knew it she had hit 31;

took off in her life way too soon and didn't get them landing lessons,

jumped all the way from 14 faster than she could even run,

She had a couple kids by now; the last at 27.

her oldest daughter resembled herself at the age of 11,

31 year old, drug addicted mother of three,

still on crystal meth and couldn't even convince herself she was free.

She was lost in her own head and found her way to different beds.

Her life melted away into nothingness and resembled one never-ending acid trip,

so much so that she was oblivious when her daughter Lexi's grades began to slip.

 

Lexi wasn't quite normal but she got by,

just a bit foolish; thought nobody told a lie,

shed get lost in the look of boys from across the room,

never crossed her mind for them to touch her where she bloomed...

 

So she only dug deeper...

I usally don't like reading writes with strong cuss words in it, but I got into this write, this is really good and very well written.
