Days Gone By

Sometimes I remember all the days gone by in awe My days on the streets and brushes with the law The tears I've cried and lonely nights spent needing The love of a father and guidance and some leading The nights alone feeling so scared,enraged, and unsure Living on handouts from strangers felling so un pure Not wanting to go back to the hell on earth at home So on the streets I choose to go, alone I would roam Every face I saw was my new potential scary enemy I hated my life on the streets, the place I shouldn't be But now a days in my life the sun shines all of the time Now the birds sing sweetly and poems do perfectly rhyme Kids run and play and I have no more cares at all I am truly happy now I feel like I'm ten feet tall Some woman think that they need to have any kind of man But I can do it alone, I am positive that I can So I stand tall breathe in and let out a long sigh I love life now and remember days gone by
