Sad Faces

I see a lot of sad faces, sad faces in all type races,

Sad because she's lonely, sad because of the traces.

Traces of real pain, traces of rejection;

She turns to someone else as an object of affection.

She have no family to depend on or no friends by their side;

Wanting so much to be loved, because it puts the pain aside.

She meets a special someone that makes her feel like no other;

He caresses with his lies, but she's not good enough to meet his mother.

She asked him does he love her and he tells her love is overrated;

Then he slaps with mean words that makes her feel berated.

When she walks away to leave, he makes love to her with his deception;

Now she's pregnant with his baby, so she takes the abuse and rejection.

She's back to looking in the mirror, looking at all the sad faces;

She's back to feeling the pain, it hurts in so places.
