Dear Christmas.


its funny as a young kid 

i wished someone would have helped me 

but they never did 

i cried because i was hungry

its a shame i was just a baby

no money 

look what they did to me,

no father 

i dont understand why,

for christmas all i got was to see was someone die 

no home, 

and even though im all alone, i guess no matter what ill have to do it on my own 

i dont why but over the years i got over all of my fears 

i know i´ll change in time,

its only because i never owned anything to call mine 

why did i have to suffer for my fathers crimes

its a hard role, i keep my faith in god knowing i´ll be scarred though

A quiet kid from Chicago who lives in New Mexico. I dream like there's no tomorrow. I'm harsh because I'm sensitive, Nothing is easy, but I've come to learn, The sun still comes up the next day.
