Taken Away From Me.
Comfort, value, and opportunities
taken away from me
at thirteen years old.
My parents struggling
to put food on our table
and clothes on our backs.
Learning the true value of a dollar,
friends spending time with each other,
while my time spent building a business.
Earning money for my family,
developing my individual growth,
holding a long-term focus within my goals,
and prioritizing what is most important,
family.
