I have nothing.

by Jenn   May 25, 2010


Wanted something more
Wanted something better
Wanted everything
But i have nothing.

I have a son that i can barely feed
I have a home with no lights...
I have a fake life i pretend to lead
but in the end i have a husband and all we do is fight.

All the problems i have and i just cant fix.
Wanting something better, something far out of reach
A warm happy life, with no problems
But here i sit dreaming and wanting
But i have nothing.

When Ur young they tell you
You can do anything, be anyone
Why do they never tell you you'll be broken
Why did they never talk about the sadness
why was i never warned about the tears

Wanted something more
Wanted something better
Wanted everything
But i have nothing.

    Great touch of life is lived through your words in this poem! I love the honesty. One thing I would do personally is make the first and last stanza the exact same. 5/5
