Girl to woman

High school graduate
College student
18 & pregnant
single and living at home

day by day
women gain some strength
they do it on their own
because someone 
left them all alone

They balance the world
on top of two shoulders
they carry the weight
of a second life

They live with remorse
ended something tragically
hasty decisions
that hurt for the rest of their lives

Losing what they love
without even noticing
slipped just out of reach
cause they looked away
busy trying to survive

Pushing through everyday
because they're young
and somewhere they didn't expect to be
struggle everyday
because someone
decided they weren't worth their time

on the bright side 
Some of these people that walked out
were really not worth the time
so these girls become women
strong and independent
through struggle
through daily task
learning what they must do to be where they want to be
