The Rise and Fall

This is a story- An unfinished story of a girl unsaid A girl who was very well read, but didn't always have her own bed. A breaking of union when she was too young; A coming together with a new dad and son. Her family had grown twofold- Oh how she was loved But times fell hard And she fell with a start; when she was living in a little house With no space apart Cramped and compact, she did not complain Because it was not all that bad, you see When your surrounded by the love of your family Too many people A too small space This little girl needed her space And she was not the only one Petty arguments and Silly squabbles Too close together and Too far apart So the little girl and her family moved To their own house A olaace with wide halls And big walls But the rest of her family followed As she knew they would But she was OK Because she finally understand They were dysfunctional; they were strange; they had no concept of a time range. But family is family wherever you are No matter how near, no matter how far
