"life on your own" < I never experienced it before but imagine its hard. Just looking at all the stuff my parents do is enough to keep me home. I love this part:

"To think of the life I had before,
Without the worry to succeed or fail.
Should I go back to the simple life?
Or should I keep on hammering the nail?"

^so true...we don't appreciate what we have until its gone. terrific write!

Your poems are becoming more and more addicting :) keep up the good work!

That was interesting and in it's own way the beginning was a little humorous. Of course the ending had been great. Really good flow and cool words. Went together nicely. Enjoyed it and was impressed with the content...etc...just the overall piece.
