When did it start?
That's quite easy to say!!
My first day at school
When we went out to play
"why do you talk so funny?"
All the kids asked.
My earliest memory
of an unhappy past.
My canadian accents
What did it for me
shunned, for the next
Two years I'd be.

During this time I was sexually abused
Fourteen when it ended!!
Felt cheap, and used
Two failed marriages...
One rape later
The madness inside my head...
could not of been greater.

A mental breakdown
is what happened next
And running away......
is what I thought best
I really believed
I was forever doomed
To live with Pink Floyd
On the darkside of the moon
Six months away
To gather my thoughts
Then homeward bound....
Was to be my course.

It's been a long struggle
to get back on top
Psychiatry helped
Make the "flashbacks" stopped
The choices I've made
Whether right ones or not
Have brought me this far
What I am what I've got
Family life
My man and me
is where I am now
And I'm happy to be.......
