Once Upon A Time Poem by Sarah Huntington

Once upon a time
My life lost it's rhymn
My mom got sick
and my heart, it took a hard kick

My sister turned into someone I never thought she'd be
It took a lot of life out of me
The man I loved hit me
The man I loved left me

My great grandpa died
Ohh the tears that I cried
My hero is leaving
And now I am grieving

My life has been hard
it has left me scarred
I feel alone with nowhere to turn
I still have soo much to learn

I lay here everyday and cry
And sometimes I don't even want to try
I almost took my own life
Because the one I'm living is so full of strife

This young heart has a crack
And I can't stop looking back
The 'what ifs' always run through my mind
And I'm sorry to say, they keep me from being kind

I feel so alone
Oh the things I wish I had known
I never know what to say
A little more of me dies each and everyday

Life isn't fair
And I no longer care
