I'Ve Survived

The police in my driveway 
the fight in the yard 
believe me my life 
had been way more than hard 
seen so much stuff 
been through absolute hell. 
my childhood years 
didnt go well. 
the tears that i've cried 
the prayers i've prayed. 
all my hurting was all but displayed. 
no one knew 
what i was hiding inside. 
no one was there 
when i broke down and cried! 
wanted just to run and hide.
