Damon Taylor Poem
It was 1977
Damon Latrell was born on April eleventh
The first born son of my mom and dad
But they didn't stay together, but life wasn't that bad
A loving mother, always said to respect that jerk
When all he would do is lie and hurt
She would give her last for the happiness of her kids
She would say she loved us, no matter what we did
She was the one who taught me to pray, before I went to sleep at night
She also said "You don't have to be what people call you, and words are no
reason to fight"
Any problem I had my mom was always there
I learned to respect people , she taught me to be fair
Just her alone and she raised us all fine
I have to thank God for a mother like mine
Call me a momma's boy, I wont get mad
But what would you call me if I was anything like my dad?

Damon Taylor Poem
How can you be trusted , I know how you are
I tried to trust you , but it didn't get me far
I though you grew up, I though you were a man
Yeah I was wrong, you tried to ruin everyone's life and you still will if you can
Just to make yourself feel good, to feel that you're on top
Only a sick person, would do family wrong , but you'll never stop
You're a bad dad and bad brother
You know you're a bad son look how at you treat our mother
She tries to help you , but you don't care
You're alway screaming and yelling "No one treats me fair"
Coward, I"m going to call you that till the end
You talk about everyone behind their back, in their face you're their friend
Get mad if you want that's just what I see
If you got a problem with what I just said, then get at me.
We are brothers and I love you , but I hate what you've became
If you got something to say, then say it to me and I'll do the same

Damon Taylor Poem
I said before I didn't wanna get colder
But the world, has given me the cold shoulder
I still don't do drugs or drink
I still try to use my head and all ways think
I try to mind my business and my manners too
If you need help I would go out of my way for you
I gave up on my dad, he is waste of my time
He didn't wanna be there so I guess that's fine
With him not being there, it made what I am today
I guess he can ruin someone else's life, and maybe they can get him to stay
I know I have a purpose, and I do believe in fate
And I know something is gonna happen for me, that will make me great
I just gotta wait and see, I know I'm blessed
I keep smiling and praying, and I'm gonna make it through all life's test
I'm still same and I'm living my life
And I own up to the choices I make and pray they're right

Damon Taylor Poem
A son or a daughter.
It really didn't matter, I would have loved you with my everything because I was your father.
You never had a chance, but I knew you would have been a great kid
I would have stuck by your side no matter what you did
I would have checked for monsters , and kissed way all your pains
I would have kept you covered from the cold cold rain
I would have taught you everything I knew, and helped you in school
I would have taught you to be yourself because that's the only way to really be cool
I would tell you not to be a bully, but I would still show you how to fight
I would tell you that we are all the same, hating someone because of a color is never right
I would tell you to do the best that you can
Stick to your beliefs, be your own woman or man.
I'd tell you friends are great, but never to change for anyone
I'd teach you that there are consequences for all the wrongs that are done
There is so much I wanted for you, so much we could have did
You're with God now, but I still love you and you will always be my kid

Damon Taylor Poem
I can't sleep, I'm always thinking
I'm staring at the wall, my eyes aren't blinking
I'm wondering where life will take me, when will it end
I feel so alone even though I have my family and friends.
I use to know who I was, but now it's like I don't know me
I lost myself now, and I may never again be happy.
I use to cry and get shy, when I thought people would stare
I use to help people anyway I could, but now it's like I don't even care
Time changes everyone,and yes I mean all
I stand alone, if I don't make it will be because of me if I fall
If I never trust anyone, then I'll never get hurt
My feelings will never get stepped on or ran through the dirt.
The closest one to person, will be the first to do them wrong fast
They'll talk behind your back, they'll bring up your past.
Sorry if it's the truth and I'm just trying to be real
Hate me if you want but this is how I feel
