Apologies To Mama

Well, here it goes.
I'm tired of being hurt and I'm the who has to run back to you.
Yes you have "raised" me.
And we have had our ups and downs.
but all I ever wanted was a real relationship with my mother.
And most of the time all she did was put me down.
 I don't really know what else to say.
So here it goes now.
I'M SORRY.
I guess maybe, hopefully, and possibly you'll let it go one day.
But as for me, I'm letting go NOW!

Life To Live Part 1

I used to think that life was a joke.
When I was 9 I started to smoke.
When I was 11 I began to drink.
But as I got older I began to think
I started thinking about what I wanted to do and what I had to give.
But then I realized I had a long life to live.
At age 13 I started to fight for no good reason.
Thanks to my dad and my anger,
I got kicked out of school for the rest of the season.
Not long after, my mom and my dad were separated,
By this time, my anger had very well escalated.
I was baker-acted for making threats in 1999.
Threatening take everyone’s life, including mine.
I hated it! I hated my life in every way.
I always stayed in the house.
I never wanted to play.
After being home schooled for two years,
It was time to go to High School my dear.
My mother appraised me, she said I would to fine.
Oops! My Bad. I got suspended 22 times.
I got baker acted again and I caught a charge.
A charge that landed me straight behind bars.
I was on probation and violated constantly.
For once the only thing I wanted was to be free.
At age 15 I was in a program locked in a cell.
Oh boy! How fun! I had my 16th Birthday in jail.
It took 11 months and 11 days to get my act straight and learn better ways.
January 16,2004 I was free once again,
To be locked up no more.
3 days after I was 17 and free from being locked down,
My mother tells me I’m off probation now. 
Now that I’ve told you what I’ve been through,
Its time for me to tell you about what I plan to do.
This is what I plan to do with my life.
To make good decisions and to do what’s right.
I plan to continue to go to school.
No more days of trying to play cool.
I am who I am not to pretend.
The way I think of it, in my life I need no fake friends.
People think I’m crazy for my plan to succeed.
Its my choice if I want to be a part of the city police.
I want to major in Criminal Justice to become a lawyer or be apart of the law.
I have came a very long way and have left so many people in awe.
People think of me as a misbehaved, disturbed little child.
But look at how far I made it. Even though it took a while.
When I was younger, I was wild.
But to all who doubted me, I hope I made you proud.
See the effort that I chose to give.
And all this was to earn a better life to live.

May You All Rest In Peace

I lost you all year after year.
Everytime I've cried,
There's been so many tears.
My face is swollen,
Because I've cried so much.
All the things I would do,
For one more hug.
You all have inspired me,
In so many ways.
Now you are all in Heaven,
Giving me your praise.
I never really got the chance,
To say, "Thank-You" or "Goodbye".
But all of the knowledge you've given me,
I will be sure to apply.
I have finally accepted.
That you all are deceased.
So God Bless your soul,
And may you all rest in peace.

The Rejection of a Friends Love

Why do I turn my friends away?
How come I never call?
Why is it that when they try to help,
I try my hardest to fall?
The confusion of my life,
has left me in so much pain.
When I think of a plan to succeed,
I tell myself  there is nothing to gain.
I show people that I'm happy.
But I'm really not.
All the people who have said they loved me,
in some way, I have fought.
Why is it that I resist them?
Why is it that I turn away?
Why do I turn down their help,
each and every day?
There is a reason that I do this,
why I stay a strayed.
It's because when I really need them,
they all run away.

My Love Is Too Blind To See

Why do you turn away from me?
Why don't you want to be bothered?
This reminds me of a similar poem,
Named 'My Dearest Father'
I hate being hurt.
I hate being alone.
Never realized what I had
Until it was already gone.
This is what you're thinking,
Or this is what you've said.
It's funny how you dont want to be bothered,
And how your messing with my head.
I cry myself to sleep, 
Almost every night.
Wondering if I still have your love,
And if I did everything right.
Maybe you dont understand this,
You mean the world to me.
But really I guess for you,
My love is too blind to see.

I'M Free Mama

I'm free mama
It doesn't hurt no more.
You can criticize me all you want.
Because I will hold my head up high from now on with no remorse.
I'm free mama.
the hateful words you say to me
And then when you pretend to pray
asking the lord to forgive and show you the way.
I free mama.
Your ways are wrong and i don't like them.
But only you can change who you are,
and what you've become. But as for me,
Im free mama
Your Impure thoughts
and selfish names you bring my way,
They dont bother me. But for you, Im here to stay. Why?
Because I'm free mama.
I don't hate you, but you have lost all respect from me. 
Yes, I forgive you. Yes, I love you.
but with the help of the good Lord himself,
I'm free mama, I'm free!

A Prayer For Grandma

As I lie down to sleep,
I am praying to the Lord.
I am praying that my grandma knows,
That her life is worth living for.
Will you help my grandma?
Please help her understand,
That anything I do or say,
Is because I want to be that helping hand.
I love my grandma very much.
And I know that she knows I do.
Just help me Lord one more time.
Help me bring her closer to you.
I am asking this of you,
One time again.
And in your name I pray.
AMEN

I'M Sorry

I'm sorry that I hurt you.
I really didn't mean it.
Sometimes I do things out of anger.
And I never see it.
I'm sorry that I push you away.
I really don't realize I do.
Just give me another chance.
So that you can see I want to be that one for you.
I'm sorry about the attitude.
I'll try to make it better.
I will do what i can.
I will try to keep me together.
I'm sorry I've been taking my stress out on you.
I know you don't deserve it.
Just bare with me a little longer.
I'll do what I can to reverse it.

My Dearest Father Part 2

Before I told you, 
About my dearest father.
Remember I told you,
How he didnt want to be bothered.
He still hasnt called,
Or wrote a letter.
All it takes is one call,
To make things better.
You were never there,
And you said you would be,
I guess I see now, 
Your drugs are more important than me.
What doesn't hurt me,
Will only make me stronger.
When I look at you,
I know I will live longer.
Now you've heard again,
A message from your daughter.
The only thing she ever wanted,
Was love from her father.

Who Is This Person Inside of Me?

Who is this person inside of me?
Filled with so much hate.
I do not know who you are anymore.
From so kind and loving to so hateful and coldhearted.
Who is this person inside of me?
Once not afraid of anything.
Now afraid of it all.
Who have I become?
Why did it all change?
Who is this person inside of me?
Once on top,smart, and strong.
Now almost at rock bottom and weak.
What am I doing to myself?
Who is this person inside of me?
A person who once loved attention,
Now pushing everyone away.
It's like the world has come to an end for me.
I don't know what to do except wonder,
Who is this person inside of me?
How do people deal with me?
At least the ones that are still around.
I can't even look in the the mirror anymore and tell myself "I'm Proud!"
I am  very disappointed in what I see.
Only because the person I'm looking at I know can't possibly be me.
Who is this person inside of me?
I used to think clearly and now it's all confusion. 
I can almost see why a person would hate me.
Look at who I am. Is this really me?
I can't make one decision or do anything right.
This is not the person I once knew.
So I ask myself again.
Who is this person inside of me?
