My Life

by Chelsea   Jun 7, 2007


Ever since I was born
we havent been a family
you guys were fighting
and you left running.

Daddy drank a lot i knew
and did drugs really bad
he seem to stay away
when he was so drunk he was mad.

Mommy got a new boyfriend
and he beat her to the ground
she didnt want to hurt me
so she let him stay around

Finally I got forced to live
with your parents instead
you couldnt take care of me
as the social worker said.

Daddy had left us
he went up above
that year was the hardest
I lost my dad and left my mom.

From then on you were alone
with no one but this guy
he got you onto drugs bad
ever since you have been getting high.

You were on and off
from streets to home
i grew up not realizing
what you had done.

Slowly I learned more
and realized things
you hurt me really bad mommy
you ruined everything.

I cant stand looking at the fact
that you are on those streets
smoking, sticking needles
and letting those things make you happy.

Mommy I am hurting
can't you see my pain
cant you see me asking you
to for once come home and change.

I dont have a mommy
and dont have a dad
grew up wanting both of them
they left there daughter sad.

I stay strong for daddy
since hes watching up above
I hide secrets deep down
trying not to let them out.

Mommy you messed up
And daddy did to
but daddy didnt hurt me
the way you seemed to.

I hate the things you have done
why wont you be a mom
I am sick of all your lies
and all the times I fear you died.

Mommy I miss you
daddy I miss you more
cant I have the parents
that i really do adore?

    This poem was obviously full of emotion and very deep. I have never had to deal with this situation, though I do not get along with my parents. I only hope you continue writing and trying to get through to you mom. Don't give up.

    The only critique is to watch your flow, just keep it steady and keep your heart in it. Beautiful piece. I loved it. 5/5.

    Thanks for the comment you left, I'm leaving you one too. Weird that we like to write about things that are similar. 5/5 by the way. I hope this isn't true, because if it is it would be really sad. If it is I am sorry. I will continue reading your stuff. :)

    Chels,

    *tears* Honestly, I don't know what to say. That has got to be one of the most painful pieces of poetry that I've ever read from you..... Are you okay? :[ I'm worried...

    "Mommy I miss you
    daddy I miss you more
    cant I have the parents
    that i really do adore?"

    ^ I can tell you're hurting. If you need me, I'm here. :]] 5.5
