Foster Kids

Falling in between family cracks
Only with shirt on your back
Sometimes life is incredibly wacked 
The adults mistakes mean life is bad
Even though it’s not your fault 
Racking brain with what you said 

Keeping hope seems a lost cause
In time so angry you see red
Defying the odds determined to be
Someone powerful when grown and free
