Lil Sis (My Bro Wrote It Back After I Sent The Big Bro Poem To Him In Jail) Poem by Melissa Medrano

My big brother wrote this to me after I sent the Big Bro poem I had written to him in jail, as he was waiting for his prison sentence

I want to write you a letter, but don't know what to say
I feel like a piece of sh , like my futures full of grey
I wonder in my mind, Wondering why my life went this way
Some wrong turn I took, now a big debt I have to pay
Addictions a trip, it can happen in one day
It hurts so bad to be livin' life this way
But it's reality and it's a disease
I wish I knew why it had to happen to me
Too late to look back, too late to gain control
These are my feelings down this rocky road
My emotions are weak, my personality sucks
Depression hit me like a mack truck
So here I sit in my cell
Scars on my arms, a plastic hell
Where do I go, to whom do I turn
Where do I live, where do I burn
Cause with this addiction I cannot win
Forever I'll suffer, forever I'll sin
Enough is enough get out the car before it's too late, before you've
gone too far
That's what I tell myself everyday
Wanting to prove my life ain't headed this way
So until the last day I will fight my fight
Until I win back my perfect life
Free from drugs, free from sin
With my family then I'll win
So to my sis, you've changed my life
How do I pay you, What's the price?
Getting clean just ain't enough, for I owe you ow so much
You've saved my life yet again, Forever and ever you're my best friend
