The STRUGGLES

by *Wishes do come true*   Aug 31, 2006


I remember the struggles, the pain and the tears
the strength that I've endured through out the years
praying to god I'll have a place to stay
with my mom and my brother not just one day
cold,mad and hungry in a shelter
we went through some hell there!!!
Everyone crying
I felt like dying
everyone staring
I was incredibly sad, there was no baring
the first day of school
I felt like such a poor fool
some sweats with a t-shirt
.....I felt I looked like dirt
"family" such a strong meaning
they..."our family" deceiving
Our "familly" watched us fall
while they were standing tall
as for my "father", he left me
for his picture perfect family
a man that I've grown to miss
I wish he was mine and I was his
how could you miss someone you never had
I just wish I had my dad
damn! we went through enough
life has been so rough
I remember the struggles, the pain and the tears
the strength that I've endured through out the years

    Wow, wonderful write. I loved it. The flow was good, however the structure needs work, perhaps breaking it into Stanzas would help. Other than that wonderful write.

    Peace, Joe
