My So-Called Family

by Nina Mendoza   Jun 21, 2007


All i ever wanted was,
a mother to hold me tight.
A brother to yell at,
and a father to teach me right.

I never had that,
and i never will.
All that i can really ask for,
is that they think of me still.

My dad got drunk,
mom got locked up.
Brother got taken away,
hell is where i ended up.

I would love for a real family,
which i can be with everyday.
They would love me so much,
no matter what people say.

I hope and prey every night,
that my family will get back together.
so we can live a happy life,
always and forever.

I'm strong in the day,
and weak at night.
All i want is my mommy,
that i can hold on to with all my might.

I close my eyes,
hoping this pain will drain.
But when i open my eyes,
everything still the same.

I guess i gotta live my life,
without a family to call my own.
Ill always remember,
what it felt like to be alone.
