Poem: Trapped
Justify the means
it's only for the pay
don't invest any feelings
lock your heart away
Tell yourself you will stop
the vile things they request
lying prone on some deck
yet another morality test
As if things weren't hard enough
will you really never learn?
how many times black and bruised
Is there any chance hope will return?
