I'm 5 alone. I'm 6 and having a nightmare. It's 3am and crawling into bed hoping my uncle can make it go away. I'm 7 and he's the nightmare. I'm 10 and angry. I'm 11 hoping. I'm 12 lying under a boy. I'm 14 and he's 23. I'm 18 with somebody. I'm 20 with the same. I'm 21 with child. I'm 22 with another one. I'm 23 married. I'm 23 with black eyes. I'm 24 hoping. I'm 24 with surprize. I'm 25 and still alive. I'm 25 on my own. He's 4 and she's 3 and I'm keeping the nightmares at bay. I'm 26 still hoping. I'm 27 with experience. I'm 28 with somebody else. I'm 29 with love. I'm 30 with disillusions. I'm 31 alone. I'm 31 with the only ones that matter. He's 9 and she's 8. I'm 31 with gratitude. I'm 31 and I ROCK! I'm 31 unreal. I'm 31 and it's alright. I'm not 5 anymore. |
