Latedra Ellis Poems

WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE the FAMILY THAT DISREPECTS YOU?
WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE the FAMILY WHO TALK ABOUT YOU BEHIND YOUR BACK?
WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE THE FAMILY WHO CLOSES THE DOOR WHEN YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO?
WHY IS IT THE FAMILY WHO COULD CARE LESS ABOUT YOU?

“Alone”
In the darkness
Noone’s here
My sadness
...

“The Mother”
She’s known as the mother
But, she doesn’t act like a mother
No love
...

I love you with all my heart
And can’t noone ever tear us apart
You’re special to me
And I love the fact that it’s just you and me
...

Life is hard
Life is tough
All the memories of my old “best friend” I must discard
The previous road was rough
...

What is love?
Love.
Love is something special in life
It’s when you get those silly feelings
...

“When you’re away”
When you’re away
I will always think of you
Oh, how I wish you could stay
...

My life
My time here on earth is filled with nothing but misery
No friends
No love
...

Love me!
Why not do that sometimes?
How about trying to be me?
I’m sick of rhymes
...

Get well soon
I know you will soon
No more misery
No more getting mad at me
...
