Brittany Nugent Poet I do not know?

Childhood

My childhood was good
but it could've been better
I went through a lot, 
and even wrote CPS a letter
My childhood didn't really last 
at age thirteen I was put in foster care, 
so I grew up fast
My childhood was great 
until one bad day
when CPS came, 
and took us all away
My childhood became nothing but pain, 
and six years later I'm still waiting 
to see my younger siblings again
Everything was fine, 
and they should have left us alone, 
but instead we were all separated,
and all living in a different home
You learn new things 
when you have to grow up fast
especially when you realize 
your childhood doesn't last 
I hate CPS, 
and what they have done
By age fifteen, I was as mature as a twenty year old, 
but I still wanted to be that little girl, and I couldn't, 
so I was told 
If I could go back and make things different I would
just so I could replace time, and things lost, or do things I couldn't, 
or wasn't able to do in my childhood
Now I'm twenty, 
and everyday I look back, 
and it hurts inside 
that CPS had to come and attack
Things would be so different 
I know they would 
if my childhood would've went on 
like it should 
Instead it was ruined, 
and taken from me 
I hate you CPS with a deep passion, 
because memories of my childhood will never let me be, 
I know all your lies, 
and you all never told the truth
All for the money, 
but God will take care of it all real soon
Ya'll took something from me CPS
that I can never have back, 
and that is my childhood
I will cut no slack. 
My childhood was great until CPS came along 
moving me from place to place 
where I didn't belong
So CPS, what do you have to say
I lost my childhood, 
because yall wanted some pay
God will get you one at a time 
the things you all did 
was just crime after crime
I don't have to say my name
you all know it very well. 
Remember I was the "little girl" 
who gave hell, 
and since you  took my childhood from me, 
I have grown to be a very smart young lady, 
and you all will see
My mom and I are ready 
we're not scared at all, 
and when the truth comes out
you CPS will be the first to fall. 
Thanks for taking my childhood, 
and I hope you all are proud, 
and soon higher authorities will be reading my poem 
very clear, and very loud
Everyone will know the truth, 
and it will all come to an end, 
and I pray everyday that CPS won't be able to take away 
another childhood again!
