Poem About Me

I was raised up poor I had barely in love I never really have a mother who care I never really have a Father Because he was to busy beating and touching me in ways a father shouldn't. Yes as I am older now It has had taken toll on my life I try so hard to forgive but I can't I have a brother and sister So my folks didn't need me I had never sleep overs I never had a real family time together I was just reminded daily how much My family didn't want me There are to this day I just sit and cry because my heart never heeled from the pain. I know am not perfect but who is Every chance I get I pray Because I want a life filled with happiness for once And because of my child hood I want to become someone To show and prove to myself That I can do better. I am just unpolished diamond that is waiting to shine.
