[hometext] => I never titled this. Just call it my first poem. My parents had just divorced. I was 17. I'm 26 now.
[bodytext] => Untitled I sit on a swing, All alone Trying to find something, To fill my hole Once I thought my family, Was all I needed But one day I realized, All of that had depleted I have a friend, I call my dad But because of mom, He is real sad I have a mom, Who has little despise But because of hope, She is not wise My mom has a friend, Who is a guy But I would care less, If he were to die In my sister, I once had a friend But after today, That all may end I sometimes say things, That gives me regrets But my past hardships, My family forgets I’ve never had enough money, To change my life But I’ll give you all I have, If you’ll take my strife My heart and body, Have a place to dwell But my mind, It lives in hell I know that I must, Try to keep going But is seems as though lately, My speed is slowing I must find a place, That I can call home A place for my mind, Body and soul I want a companion, Who I can love, Because you see my heart, Is as soft as a dove If not, I’d like, Someone to hold That’s almost as good as love, So I’m told This is all I can say, About my life It’s full of fear, Hope and strife After writing this poem, I’m quite afraid Cause it feels like my heart, Has been filleted There are no more words, To be expressed So I will go to bed, Cause I need the rest I sit on a swing, All alone Trying to find something, To fill my hole.
