Dominique Gladney Poem
Farewell, until we meet again
I don't understand why God had to take you so young
Death, pain, and sorrow are hard things
For a young person to deal with in life
I always told you Good Night; we
saw each other the next day
On that night I thought that
You were just resting
But then I realized it would be
A rest for all eternity
My heart is broken into pieces as
I try to hold my tears back
The only person that
I could call my brother
Is now gone, not suffering
And to never be forgotten
Today, I can't think but to
wonder why God had to take you away
Friends and family pay their
Respects and say their last words
You're in God's hands now,
He'll take care of you
I give you a kiss and whisper
"Good Night! Rest in Peace Until We Meet Again"

Dominique Gladney Poem
They say that you never realize
What you have until it's gone
But I knew what I had until
They had to take your life away
We used to hang out at the park
Talk and play a lot
But now that you are gone
My life has been different
You were my friend, and
You were like a brother to me
What would make someone do
Such an evil thing to you
We played basketball and baseball
And we played tag football
But now that you're gone
Nothing will be the same
While we live in a world of
Cruelty and crime, and deceit
We try to move on in life
Despite our loved ones being taken away
We can never share those moments
And even if you are gone
Nobody can replace the beauty,
the power and the love in you

Dominique Gladney Poem
Roses are red, violets are blue
Who has stood by my side when times were hard
There was no other, it was always you
Of course it's not my real mom
Was she ever there for me?
No!! She wasn't there so
You took the responsibility
For every punishment you gave
and when you took my T.V.
and to be such an incredible woman
What a special Mother's Day this will be
And by accepting each kid
And calling them your own
You are good role model
I've learned a lot from what you have shown
Your love is greater than any love
We'll never lose our bond
No matter what comes between

Dominique Gladney Poem
There's me, myself and I
I think and always try
To do things that are right
And not to get in a fight
I wake up early in the morning and I see
How special I have come to be
When I look outside and see the moon
I say that the night has come so soon
I drop to my knees at the end of the day
And ask Jesus what's come my way
Me, myself and I
I wish I could fly high in the sky
I will never give up
I'll always keep my head up
I continue so I can succeed
I'll never follow, I'll always lead

Dominique Gladney Poem
I'm so down, I'm so blue
I don't know what to do
Will I be sold, or am I lost?
If so, what's the cost?
Am I slave, or am I free?
Who will know me and when will they see?
So many things have gotten me down
There is no smile, I'm walkin around with a frown
Lookin out the window, and the clouds are gray
This is not going to be a cheerful day
I'm thinkin about all of my loved ones who have died
When I heard that they were gone, I just cried and cried
I try to think about all of the fun that I had
But now things just seem to be going bad
I always ask the Lord how can I stop all of this pain
I've been locked up in sorrow and it's hard to explain
I keep things to myself, I don't wan to spread it around
You can tell that I'm upset because I don't make a sound
I'm so down and I am feeling so blue
I'm caught up in sadness, and don't know what to do

Dominique Gladney Poem
There's me, myself and I
I think and always try
To do the things that are right
And have a nice sleep at night
I wake up early in the morning and I see
I special I have come to be
When I look out the window and see the moon
I say the night has come so soon
I drop to my knees at the end of the day
And ask Jesus what's come my way
To let people know and let them see
I will always be me and only me
I will never give up
I will always keep my head up
I continue to work hard so I can succeed
I'll never follow, I'll always lead

Dominique Gladney Poem
You broke my heart when you didn't
Come see me on my fourth birthday
You hurt me so bad, I cried and I don't
Understand why you did me that way
You promised me that you would come help
Me with my gifts and cutting my birthday cake
Among all of the other that you've don e in my life
You lied to me, and that is just another mistake
Everyday, I think to myself, and I alwayz wonder
What my life would be like living with you
Would you show me that you cared? Would you
Show me love? Would you know what to do?
When I think about the way my life started a young one
I feel like I had been sold, because I wasn't wanted by anyone
I hope you know that you broke my heart in so many ways
I've a strong feeling that you didn't want me anyways
It really never came to my mind that
My heart would be broken by my own mother
But I thank God for the gift of having another

Dominique Gladney Poem
Everyday I thanks God for
Having a mother like you
I wish everyone was fortunate to
Have the gift that God has given me
You are my role model
And I look up to you
I wish God would bless me
The way that he has blessed you
When I have kids, I want to
Be a great mother like you
I want to share that love
That you have always shown me
I want to be a success in life
I want be just like you
You are my inspiration
Thank God for a mother like you

Dominique Gladney Poem
Back stabbing anger infuriates
The mind of the troubled girl
Troubled girl's heart and mind is
Full of pain and anxiety
Always the guilty one and
Always put on the spot
Aggravating voices infuriates
My mind, and then become intense
Stress always haunts me
But why today? Satan tries to control me
But I can't let this evil creature
Keep bugging me, and hurting me
It's a feeling of aggravation,
Intimidation, irritation, frustration
Agitation, exhaustion, and a
Feeling of being worthless

Dominique Gladney Poem
You'll be there till the end
Even in the blow of the wind
You kept me since I was eight days old
As if I was a treasure of gold untold
You showed me wrong from right
And always tucked me in bed at night
When I came home with a bad note
I knew you would put me in the bad boat
When the teacher told you that I learned to read
You knew in your heart that I would later succeed
And when you found out that I got in a fight
You took my television for the rest of the night
When I started to throw things around
Things were always hard to be found
You may not be my biological mother
But to me you are different and like no other
Wearing dresses to church and my hair in curls
And you would always wear your beautiful pearls
Every morning when you did my hair
You always made sure I had something decent to wear
Even though we are living apart
You will always be in my heart
God knows we both care for each other
To you my number one foster mother
You know I will love you always
Even in the remaining days
To you Mommy, who is the best
I will love you always and forever
