What I Would Want To Know.

by Rachel leigh   Jan 13, 2006


*sorry..its long..*

Im the one that pops up at the very wrong time,
But deep inside only you can see that I want to shine.

But you probably think Im a screwed up kid,
Who needs help because shes a mis-fit.

You know what? Youre right, thats a very good guess,
Howd you know my life was a complete mess?

Im the one nobody wanted, not even my mother,
She didnt care, so why would any other?

I wasnt good enough for her to keep,
I never had anyone to rock me to sleep.

No one there to calm my cries,
Or simply just to wipe the tears from my eyes.

No one cared when I learned to talk,
And no one saw when I learned to walk.

No one there to fix my boo-boo.
Or to even say I love you too.

I was adopted when I was just about three,
The beginning of what I thought was a happy story.

These parents became my mom and dad,
Very happy people until they turned bad.

What went on you will never really know,
The bruises and scars I will never show.

They said they never really wanted me,
That if they could pick, I wouldnt be it, see.

This all made me run away
They never really wanted me anyway.

Then childrens services had to come in
I guess parents dont know that lying is a sin.

There is one thing that they have given me,
And that my faith, which helps me to dream.

I have been threw thin and thick,
And now I find out that Im sick.

Every night I begin to cry,
And think about when I will die.

I smile on the outside for everyone to see,
But no one will see the pain I keep inside of me.

This is for all those who always want to get high,
And think getting wasted is such a fun ride.

This is for you, a reminder to all,
If I can influence just one at all.

Life is precious so hold on tight,
Stand up for what you believe, and go out with a fight.

Say youre sorry when youre wrong,
And always sing along to your favorite song.

Life goes by ever so fast,
So live it up before it goes past.

Tell those that are special to you
That you do love them too.

Because when special people come around,
You dont forget the love thats bound.

You appreciate everything that they do,
And the love that they give to you.

Sometimes I wonder what life would be,
If we werent inspired by the ones that we meet.

And sometimes I wonder how someones love,
Cant make you have faith in the one above.

For if I died tomorrow,
I would leave wanting to know,

That even though my life is done,
That just maybe I left and impression on someone.
