What Makes Things Awesome

My ma, my pa,

They don't get along that much

I had noticed for quite some time

When papa took the sis and me on a vacation

His wedding ring was gone the whole time

Said he didn't want to lose in the ocean

But it was the most solid thing in my life, 

It wouldn't go anywhere

I remember on a Sunday morning

My mom ran from their room

Crying

I could hear the words

"You don't even understand"

I was frightened, I was scared for my sister, for my future

Not long after they sat us down and told us

I could see the tears begininning to form in my brave father's eyes

I thought I could always look to them when my relationships failed

But back then, everything I knew was broken

Two years later and I'm doing pretty swell

I'm happy, I have friends, and I'm able to say that I've found myself

I know this story may be everything but awesome

But thats what my life is now, its awesome

Most people don't pull through with things like that

They stick to home and don't live on and discover

But I love myself, I think I'm pretty awesome

I have two beautiful homes and everyone still loves me

When the times do get rough, they are not very awesome

But when you succeed and pull through, 

That is what makes life and living awesome.
