a personal story

There was a child

born over a month before term 

but she was a survivor 

mom was 19 

dad was gone 

but she was a survivor 

five years later 

a man came a long who hit her mom 

but she was a survivor 

sister was born 

man was so mean 

but she was a survivor 

five years later 

her dads identical twin stepped in 

he almost broke her 

uncle knocked up mom 

the kid came along 

he almost broke her 

she was young 

he was curious 

he almost broke her 

the DNA between the man who left 

the same as the man who tried to physically abuse her 

they almost broke her 

she lost her way 

she drank and stayed out late 

they almost broke her 

boys came and went 

as grades flew by 

they almost broke her 

almost done with hope and school 

she met the one that would fix her 

he was a keeper 

he broke her habits 

he showed her love 

he was a keeper 

out of their town the two went 

to figure things out for themselves 

he was a keeper 

they are wine and grapes

she is a survivor 

he is a keeper
