Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

Not Broken Open Family

Some say they from a broken family
I’m not but nowadays its broken anyway
punished when in trouble had to take responsibility 
picked apart by my troubles stripped of masculinity  
punishment not found when a parent ups and leaves 
in all probability it took the confidence from me 
labelled a cluts my fails they made me see 
at 11 brother went to university 
my sister moved out unhappy 
so in my family unit I was on my only 
funny as now my siblings disowned me 
my parents are peoples they don’t want to see 
I’m stuck at home reluctantly 
one year over 33 
let the bird fly free his nest his destiny 
let him find his kids his lady 
they label me lazy some say crazy 
stuck here deservingly deserve living desertedly 
as I’m not searching assertively, 
I’m not from a broken family 
just one that lives far openly
