She Was Just A Baby.

She was just a baby. Just a little girl living in a harsh cruel world. My mommy wasn't there, and neither was my daddy. I was almost on my own except my sister maddie. Maddie was the older one so she did all the raising. I am growing up now but my memory is slowly fading. I wanted that normal life and that loving warm family. I never had that, just a dog named Sammie. Sixteen years went by, but it couldn't be fast enough. I went through hell and back, it didn't make me tough. It made me want to end my life, to give up. Slit my wrists with a knife. I snapped in reality quick. I had to make it. I met the love of my life. She gave me reason to try it. I'm trying to make it. Trying to go to college. I went today to check out just how much money i had to get down with. My Pell paid for most of my tuition. It's covered. I hate to say it, but there is no thanks to my mother. I need to win a scholarship to help pay for my books. I know i can't get that money with my looks.
