Harsh nights, long days
an old soul with a young age
she skipped her whole youth
this ageless prostitute
Sex is her influence
money her motivation
survival her struggle
a life led alone
with no one to call her own
the hurts she's endured has
impaired her ability to trust
which fuels her image
ignited by lust
his, but of course
because she has none
left to possess
always in control
even her gestures
expose just how old
this game is to her
She justifies her actions
with monetary satisfaction
a heart a cold as ice
love being her biggest sacrifice
Always received and never issued
for her
emotions just aren't an issue
People pass judgement
she just smiles and relents
since
they need no explanation
because they are not
her salvation.
The path she chose
may weight heavily on her soul
who knows?
she does what she do
walks in her own shoes
with her head held high
this ageless prostitute
