when reality finally struck me
my family, i thought to myself
what happen?
what exactly happen?
my loved ones slowly faded away
vanished into thin air
although they are alive
in my eyes, they are gone
a beautiful picture that was once there
that rainbow at one time was my family
sadness of pride and power crossed my face
i overcame adversity
they have become my adversary
i'm at a better place
at peace with myself
everything fell into place
my heart is cold as ice and through the sorrows
strength injected a resurgence into my body
when i see kids with their families
moment of sadness, but it has no gain
crazy thoughts were filling my mind
trying to lock me in silence, no trace behind
bringing myself peace
i stand alone
but i stand tall
destruction that i could've become
construction is what save my life
