She lives with her legs apart
Offering the pleasures men seek
An affordable panderer of fantasies
Eagerly accepting minimal words of praise
Exchanging self-respect for self fulfillment
What led her to this
Daddy's incest filled desires?
Or a rapist's fix?
When will she learn
Men will do anything for their share
They play their part
They know their role
Catering to her fragile mind
In order to satisfy their sexual appetite
At her expense
Her self respect removed with her cherry
Believing now, sex is the only way
To gain that needed attention from men
Isn't that what makes girls popular?
She lives with her legs apart
Finding comfort in sex warmed sheets
Bartering with her seductive eyes
Struggling to gain dignity
Convincing herself, "He really loves me"
When she has never known a real love
Praying that her body
Will keep him coming back to her
She hears whispers of her reputation
Believes she isn't as bad as they say
Almost sure she believes that lie
She has twisted the truth into something vile
A self replicating logic based on self deception
Sure she seems happy
Men offer her the greatest bribes
Wonderful trinkets for her self-worth
Slowly sacrificing the last of her goods
Hating the inevitable noon breakup
"Sorry baby. It was great but..."
