Deal

When life has no end,

life did not begin.

No love known,

No love in,

just the pain,

just the thumb,

I sucked it,

'till I was Ten.

I miss the comfort,

I want the sum,

of all of this,

I am not dumb,

I may not speak,

I may not teach,

I'm just a girl,

not a leach.

Sorry, that won't appeal.

Sorry, I will not kneel.

Sorry, I'm not a seal.

Sorry, I don't want a deal.

K.A.P.
