Change, by J-Hood
|
Fist clenched it’s hard to write
I wanna swing with all my might
And fill this room with bloody rain
And let someone else feel my pain
Try and get a grip try an relax
And get my mind back on track
Write it down express emotion
My pen can be my anger potion
Why’d you hurt me? Why’d you lie?
Why’d you leave me dad? Why’d you die?
There’s all these questions I wanna ask
Why’d I have to grow up so fast?
And be a man while still a boy?
And use guns and women as my play toys?
You were supposed to be there supposed to guide me
But instead I taught myself an grew up wildly
Mom was busy taking care of us
But government assistance wasn’t enough
So I went out an did my dirt
Sold coke and weed as fulltime work
Mom didn’t like it so I left
And kept on doing what I knew best
I did take after you though dad
Put dope in my nose and beer in my hand
Oh yeah by the way I have a little girl
She’s three now and my whole world
Her name is Asia she the cutest thing
She enjoys life an the joy it brings
She can enjoy life and do what kids do
Because I’m a real father unlike you
Now let’s skip ahead three more years
Look in my eyes you see those tears?
My daughter’s no longer with me yeah it’s true
I’m turning into a piece of shit just like you
Day by day is what I’ll do
And day by day I’ll forgive you
For not being there for your son
Your life is over mines just begun
I don’t want my daughter feeling the same way
So I’ll make change in my life starting today

This is Great! not only the writing of the poem, but it's meaning. If it is a true poem of yourself, then I know your 'change' will make that difference for your daughter ASIA's life. Best wishes and love from Glo |
