Her Life Story
First there was three, then there was two
Daddy reassured her, momma would be back soon
Little did she remember of her mother
Because momma’s little story was a sweet sweet somber
She blocked out all the memories
All the yells and all the screams
And ones of her crying at night
When momma and daddy got in a fight
But she still remembers that day
When momma walked out that door
And started to walk away
Now momma is no more
She’s sitting in her room
Singing to a tune
In her bed where she lay
Momma’s smoking a lot
In that parking lot
And drinking her life away
“Daddy didn’t pay the bills” they said,
“He was poppin’ those pills instead”
CPS took her away
Now she’s got another remembered day
“Poor little girl stuck alone in this world.”
That’s what they’d probably say
Just because this is in a poem,
Don’t believe it’s just a story

btw- this is not about me what-so-ever.
But i felt the need to get it out.
