Born in a hovel Her mother cried too The village named her Maya Her father started anew. Never told she was a human Never knew otherwise Never doubted life's lessons Stolen from her mother's eyes. Ignored, she grows older Unknowing of her plight Dreamless, life has nothing to offer Never given her a reason to fight. Falls prey to a young man Gotta leave before he changes his mind Got nothing much to carry Everything to leave behind. Sold into a brothel Girlchild is just 15. Maya The name suits her well This little life has never been 18, she's got the disease Forgotten everything in between New girl has come in from her place Gone to welcome her into sin. 'Little sister your name won't do Choose Maya, that was mine In this place that is nothing new It's all I have to leave behind
