That is a very sad one..Life is not always a bed of rose petals but sometimes it is a bed of thorns...I hope that this is just a topic and not your life..If your life, you have my deepest sympathy..I hope if your life that you have relatives that take charge and give you a home..Sara

This is similar to your previous submission. I see you have changed the last couple of lines. Nevertheless, this is decently descriptive. Reading this reminded me of the day my dad passed away.
