if i tried

Growing up was miserable!with parents

wrapped & tucked up in there self,a father

who left for his own selfish reasons...

A mama who disappeared into crack & alcohol

Kids teased me because i ain't fit in

there popularity at all...

I felt depressions walls collapse around

me!My self-esteem started to fall in a places

it ain't belong...

Walking through the woods of loneliness...

No matter how hard i tried to find my way

through the confusement of my childhood

where everything,seemed useless...

I hurt & mental anguish still cuts me with a

sharp knife..

My wounds started to bleed nonstop like

red waterfall overflowing inside me

I hope she never be like me,wearing her

heart on the wrong sleeve took by thieves & torn apart..

Virginity stolen by thieves at thirteen!

I can never fix those bruises there stuck

there for life...

I wasn't ready i was to Young to be making

adult choices...  

I made them at 15 when she was conceived...

her dad decided Sherm was better then me

& he,had to leave his responsibility...

It hurt but not for to long because she was my

happiness a little gurl,taken away from me at three

Just when she seemed like a new  

start to my shattered world...



She was like an angel!sheltered me with her

wings & brought the broken pieces of me

back together...

The state broke them to tiny unrepairable fragments...

Sitting on the sink in the bathroom looking

through distorted images of this gurl,trying to figure

out who she was...

Who am i with out my daughter the one person who accepted

loved & never judge me...

She where the happiness running through my veins

like the wind,when they took her my heartbeats

started to faint!

Further & further i started to slip away like a ghost

i vanished,in a world that seemed dead...

There's not a night that goes by that i don't think

about her...

Wondering how she sleep,if i'm missed like she is?

I told myself i'd never have another kid because

she could never be replaced...

Years passed by with her still on my mind!

I got unexpectedly  pregnant with her brother he

doesn't make up for lost times of her & me...

He's just another edition to our family...

I love him very much he's treated no differently then

i treated her!

Only difference is she seen more smiles then he do.

I'm trying to change that fact & build a brick wall

around my cries,so he don't see the raining drops

of pain behind them...

Its hard keeping the liquids inside without her

here by my side...

I feel apart of me is missing that i can never

get back if i tried
