What Is Teamwork To You

This ones for you. John 

Cheers to the last straw! 
You drew it and smashed it.
You broke it and slashed it.
This is the end to your lies and your manipulation.
This is the final goodbye to the child that tried more than they should have with you.
What is teamwork to you?
when you treat your wife and

Broken Home

I was afraid if I would 
Be a good mom. 
With a broken home. 
That had no love. 
That had no support. 
I never learned what a 
Family was. 
Never had a family to help.
But I had you and 
Fell in love with you.
Then everything just clicked. 
I taught myself 
How to be a good

Broken Home

A broken Home is
Not only when parents got divorce
Nor when one parent died.
It is a broken Home 
When both parents are alive but there's no love.
When there's no unity,
Each has its own desire to reign.
Sometime one impose their own will to the rest of the members
Parents wants their children to abide by their rules
However cruel

Broken Home

She always said the most hurtful words,
You are dumb, very stupid, you are a hoe cause you would actually suit it,
Apparently it was her way of teaching, her way of capturing a Childs subconscious,
To show how cruel the world can be,
Her teachings where Savage and damage covered with love and chocolate, sweet to the eye,

Broken Home

This house has holes in the roof
It rains inside
Flooding the gaps between the floorboards
Tattered shades cover broken windows
Her doors no longer open
A shattered mess
Reflection of the heart it resides in

A Broken Home Draft

Stolen play and poetry
A swollen face, abused and beat
No food to eat. No table neat
No place to be. No one to meet

No place of love nor friend to see
A child lost in poverty. 
The ills of a world seen verily 
No smiles now held merely 

A while to go till freedom felt
Down to the level

Broken Home

He was raised by different indigenes,
After being embedded in specialized tissue,
Those moments were tough,
And in fact, it wasn`t easy for the mum,
Did you recall that point the dad was contemplating in hard times?
That was all about their child’s successfulness to arrive in a failing world,

Perhaps, the couples never stationed their class on dignation and confidence,
Because

Broken Home

I’m a teenage guy who goes to school.
Everyone thinks I’m so much fab and cool.
But have they heard this story of mine?
Got a broken heart that’s not well and fine.

My mom dislikes me in some ways.
Dad is out ‘cause he’s looking for his days…
Both of them aren’t good with each other.
That’s why I’m troubled and

Broken Home


Here we go 
again
No room left to 
pretend

The word 'love'
Is just junk
It's meant to 
cover up

The scars and 
the bruises
Of fights day 
and night
The mental 
abuses
It just isn't right

Surviving 
together
In this torture 
room
This shattered 
home
Can provide no 
room

To breath but 
to see
Hearts of soot 
and ash
When the cold 
took over
It broke them 
in half

Strangle me
Stab

Broken Home

she came from a broken home
where the parents at each other
would throw stones.
every day they would argue, bicker 
and fight, all the way till the night.
not realizing their Childs plight.
the child to them in turn would scream
but in the battle she was not seen.
   from her father she had sexual abuse
fighting with him,

Broken Home

I've chewed up
spit out
and booed off stage
just for talking
about todays society
out of my mouth flew rage
half crazed am I for rambling
in a daze
what, for trying to stop rape
from happening
Honestly I could careless 
of your upbringing
the pure thought of it unending
forever shall I be decending
the words of a story teller
begging to leave this so called shelter

Silhouette of a Broken Home

[5]He sits in a corner 
Like a stranger in wander.
He knew it wasn't worth it
Yet asunder became winner,
Now he is a lone ranger
For giving in to the 
Home breaker.
Anger, slander, character,
Causing matrimonial
Disaster.

[10]He carried his lunchbox
In order to catch up with
The school bus...,
Pale, pathetic, not to 
Miss daddy's absence
Is a paradox,
For he could not understand
Why things

Wanted child
Hence i was born
Two loving parents
The perfect norm
 
All it takes is just one day
The marital ropes will start to fray
Parental bliss, family born
Will suddenly be not as strong
 
Many events make this so
For either parent to come or go
The innocents stare
In wonderment gaze
What makes their parents
Go through this phase
 
The make up of

Broken Home

I hear a car door slam.
As I lie awake in bed.
I know now that you’re hear.
A single tear is shed.

I sense what will occur,
When you stumble through the door.
You’ll take it out on her,
Then leave her shattered on the floor.

She’ll pick herself back up again,
Then come into my room.
And tell me that she can sustain.
All
