Named Scarlet,
A Harlot.
Shame gained,
Acquired pain.

When bored,
She scored.
With obsession,
Came depression.

Too weak
To speak.
Fragile,
Broken will.

Now refused
To be used.
She was through,
Life anew.

Felt like prey,
She would stray.
Change her ways
Live better days.

No more pay
For "Scarlet A."
