Examples of who not to be


I needed your love if you’d like to know .

I needed a hug when my spirits were low .

You showed me the way ; Two People could go,

their entire life and have nothing to Show .

Thanks mom and dad for sneaking around

Why wasn’t I enough to shut the fun down ? 

For being so wild and being so young ;

as if maturity could kill, like pneumonia in the lungs .

I’ve grown so sincere from the selfishness,   the bitter tounge

; Building a world of my own, hoping to diminish of the absence of love .

I contradict the saying ” the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree “,

God directed a wind that blew me away like leaves .

Thankyou for showing me :Examples of who not to be
