She is a princess,
I am a lowly present.
She is an angle that fell from heaven,
I crawled my way out of the gutter.
She is loved and admired by everyone,
I am looked down upon and shunned by them.
She is draped in silk and jewels,
I am covered in rags and mud.
She was brought up in a loving respective family,
I was raised in a home where if your not in front of them I don't exist.
She has everything,
I have nothing.
How is it someone can seem to live one life but exist in a another.
