Life in Her Small EyesA Poem by Alexis L. Thompson...
From a childhood of pain.
Of anger and sorrow. From the little blonde girl, looking for a better tomorrow. Not knowing right from wrong. No help from "parents" or morals to gain. The continuous arguing that fills her small brain. A mother to lazy to care. a father with a psychotic glare. A girl that gets high from the smoke standing by. She doesn't know it's not fair. Finally a day things would get better. With no more pain and no more crying, but she still doesn't know she's slowly dieing. A day when mom left. The day daddy cried. There was no mom to protect the girl. Now her life is a bomb. About ten years went by. Fifteen and getting high. Dating a boy of seventeen. The man of her dreams. But she will never live life alive. © 2011 Alexis L. Thompson |
