My Life

To life, I'd like to thank you For all that you've done For making things be perfect And making things go wrong Growing and changing Like a tree growing tall I've learned to get up Though, I've tried not to fall The self pity I've known has been stronger than most For my dad was hardly there He wasn't there for birthdays Or to put butterfly clips in my hair My mother cheated on my stepdad After he only loved and cared They might not be together long And for that, I am scared So thank you life, for hurting me You have made me strong Through all the times of happiness And all that has gone wrong
