Thinking of My Life Now

I began to think what life would have been if I stayed in one house 
No moving from state to state every year 
with a mom who struggles to take care of me and a dad who lives afar 
would rejoin and make our family a family again 

As most kids wish they had both parents 
I care to see that they are happy with the mates they are with 
Even though it would not be my birth mom or birth dad I would be happy 
Because my parents would be happy 

But if I would have stayed in one home 
Would have that helped me in school 
Would I be stronger in who I am 
Would I be a better person this day 
These are the questions I ask my self everyday
