Soled was a passionate girl, student of social communication and lived continuously writing, her specialty was poetry, she created beautiful lyrics and only wished someday that those lyrics could be heard from a beautiful voice, she had followed the artistic career of a growing singer who had been very well accepted by the young audience, she began her internships in a written media well known in her country and there she made many friends some good and others not so much.

She had told some people about her hidden talent and obviously they had filled her with flattery and suggestions for selling her lyrics, she just wanted them to be heard and she was interested in that option, they got her in direct contact with the leader of the band she was following, and she began to write to him informing him of all the lyrics she had and how much she wanted them to play, he told her what to send them and she agreed to give him two of her most beautiful lyrics, the days passed and she had no more answers, she decided to send another email and the account returned her messages as if the account didn't exist, they had deleted it, she regretted it and asked Karen who had gotten the supposed contact, she just smiled uninterestingly and said, "you know how the artists of the stuck-up pretty are, look for other ways", Soled left without taking too long but was a little disappointed, however she let it go, I pass the time and one day she goes on the bus to her work and listens to a song on the radio, it was not the band she had contacted but a singer and the announcer had presented the lyrics as a musical hit of the artist herself.

Soled felt very bad, he felt very helpless and when he arrived at work he called one of his friends and she told him everything and they both searched the internet and it was really happening, it turns out that Karen, who had been the one who had passed the mail to him, was going out on one of her social networks with the artist, and had quit her job a week before, Soled never registered her lyrics as her own and because of her ignorance they took away a part of her art and the lyrics she most appreciated, she foolishly trusted someone who took advantage of her lack of knowledge.

We must always keep in mind that if there are laws and international norms that support us it is for a reason and whenever you believe, write, compose or do something new and of your complete authorship you must register it as your property, this is your "intellectual property" so that if someone wants to appropriate it you will have the basis to fight and win that battle.
