Moving


Soul less and empty the room was

It had no color, no life

Sitting on the floor getting a feel of this new place 

New house, new state, new life according to mom 

"Its going to be fun, I promise" mom said,

I miss my school, I miss my friends but just like mom said 

"Its going to be fun!"

I wanted to go home, back to where I was before

Where I was happy and foolish,

But now that were here I have to pretend I'm something that I am not......

I argue with mom all the time,

"Please lets move back, I'll be good I swear!"

But she won't listen to me 

So I stay in that empty room,

Upset, Angry and Scared....

I missed dad but mom didn't,

I always loved dad over mom but dad betrayed us....

He ran off a couple months ago with some lady we never met,

He promised that he would come back for me but that was a lie.

But as memories fade so do the feeling you once had for that person

I want to run, I want to scream but all that comes out is a quiet whimper, 

Of pity and doubt, "Why does everyone I love leave....", "am i not good enough"...

In the end I didn't even make it to 25,

This depression got the best of me, 

And my story ended........ with a "BANG"
