Breana Snyder ♥ (: Digital Poem
There are no daddies where I’m from there's just mad mothers and eyes that still seem they cant look past color Why am I disrespected by someone I should call brother and why girls feel unpretty and constantly hate each other?
I push it like I’m in labor And I pray I will teach myself to love my neighbor
You mad at me cause you think I got it easy If we were in the second grade then you would tease me Your still a snotty nose hood rat Words scribbled all over your book bag
I love you too, I just wish your mother would have hugged you too.
I love the kids Yellow brick road looking’ for the Wiz
Follow the rules Say your prayers and get ready for school
When it rains it pours for real But I don’t want to do it no more I sort of lost sight of what I’m doin’ it for Feels like my efforts being closed between a door
I thought I was doing something good For the game until they all started throwing Dirt on my name I taste regret in my sweat I see failure in my past
