All of these years

All of theses tears

The trials and tribulations

And the worst of all fears

That were never thought of

Then came to light

The power to try and keep reality away

Out of mind, body, and sight

But the more I try to ignore it

The more it seems to come true

Every bad outlook

On splittin up a family that hasen't a clue

I have worked tryin to keep us together

As a famly day and night

But the "powers that be" fight against me

Leaving me bewildered, hurt, and in fright

Stop. Please.

You're taking to much

When will you learn enough is enough

One, Two, Three stikes your out

And it's all ova

It's the end

There is no other beginning.

I sit

Think

Cry

And sigh

And talk to a being

Get these feelings out

But steadily building new ones on the inside.

Tears rolling down my cheeks

Vision blurred by the water in my eyes

By the thought of how hard I tried

To keep us together and everything on the inside

My heart steadly beats

And my thoughts pumps faster

Way past the Afro-Standard

I don't want to continue

I want to quit and give up

Now nothing is left in my hands

Its all up to her.

But I'm not a lil kid

I know whats going to happen

I will never forgive you

So many negative feelings towards you

I gave you so many chances

Been through this so many times

I'm not sorry because....I'm DONE

Mother, you don't deserve that title, so you kno.....

YOU HAVE DESTROYED MY LIFE....
