A Misfortunate Life
A child was born
June 30, '92
At St. Charles Hospital
When Awake were few
A party was held
After exactly a year
for the little child
where everyone was to appear
November 8th
was a dedication
for the child to God
to show the parents affection
A now stubborn child
would not blow out her candles
as her second birthday party came
the attention she could not handle
Party time again!
This time number three
In the middle of a heat wave
104 degrees
The child's fourth b-day
was at a place called Discovery Zone
When time to blow the candles
a Kodak moment was shown
Wildwood New Jersey
What a place to be!
In summer of '96
that is where she went camping
In December, 1996
In her pre-school
she was in a chrismas program
she thought it was kind of cool
April 12, 1997
was a real memorable moment
for this child was a flower girl
at a wedding where she went
The next day, April 13
was three days after
her baby sister was born
and she was already taking care of her!
Fast foward a couple months
and this is when they moved
to a place called Middletown
where true dedication was proved
Through thick and thin
this family stayed
in the roomy trailer
where memories were played
This ordinary and strange child
went through a lot
through her elementary years
where many tears were brought
For this child every day
would always get teased
and her self-confidence
was soon seized
Being called fat,
four eyes, and weird
these people were now
who she worse feared
She couldn't get over
how messed up she was
and gossip about her
was always the latest 'buzz'
Soon middle school came
and it got no better
and a friend she did not have
not a 'him' or a 'her'
Seventh grade came
and she was homeschooled once again
for she couldn't stand the loneliness
that swallowed her lifespan
She had a hard time
putting herself out there
being schooled from home thrice
friendless she couldn't bear
She needed to get away,
the torment from inside and out
slowly tearing her apart
she tried something new with doubt
She applied for a new school
for a new start
something for her academic life
would set her apart
What she didn't know
was that Ninth would be worse
then the previous torment.
Her new attitude wasn't a first
She tried to close herself up
from the rest of the school
every time she pushed herself out
she would just get fooled
She changed that year,
drastically at that
her old attitude and ways,
they were all the past
Number Ten
coming up fast
you never would have thought
she was the same person from the last
She made so many changes
over the summer
she thought it would change things
she couldn't get any dumber.
Depression soon found her
inspite of her struggles
she just couldn't fight it
her life was soon juggled
There were few things that could help her
if only for a while
friends, family, and music
were all in the pile
Her memories were hard
and burned her alive
she felt she had sacrificed
all of her life
There were too many to count
and still more to come
but she only hoped
they would help her pain numb
She wanted to be happy
like everybody else
she didn't want to be that doll
alone on a dusty shelf
---------------------------------------------
Its really hard to say
that everybody cares
even the slightest bit
at what is being shared
Why should they wonder
about somebody's life
they've got their own worries
not this one person's strife
If that's the case
then fine
but if you are intersted
what you want are in the previous lines
