Not So Normal Childhood

For my old best friend, James Yea.. it sucks but i honestly don't care.

Listen here, I got a story to tell
by the time I'm done, y'all will know it pretty well.
This is a story about a not so normal childhood
of a certain boy growing up in a bad neighborhood.

He was born into a bad family, full of drama and drugs
he barley got any attention and any hugs.
His father left his mom, his sister, and him
and left without providing them
with any money or anything.
He thought he was dreaming
no, he woke up  at nights screaming.
Everything went bad until he met certain new people
who helped him, his mom, and his sister and
started dreaming a little deeper seeing if this was a bad dream
even though it seemed so, he just had to go.

This was a very good poem. I like the rhythm to it. If a child is growing up in a terrible family they do need to leave. My favorite line was the last one. Thanks for sharing.
