Family is supposed to have your back,
Family is supposed to know you,
There are supposed to be no secrets with family,
There are supposed to be no lies with family,
...
I don't deserve, a guy like you.
I don't deserve, the patience you give me.
I don't deserve, the kindness you share with me.
I don't deserve, the time you spend with me.
...
I collect oddities,
little things with no purpose.
I collect ans collect,
but never seem to have eough,
...
Is there something wrong with me?
That would make you want to hurt me.
That would make you want to ignore me.
What did I do that was so wrong?
...
I just want someone to hear,
what I have to say,
what is on my mind.
I just want someone to ask,
...
I cry almost everyday,
I cry when you don't look,
I cry myself to sleep,
I cry in the shower,
...
Why aren't you here with us?
Why are we always second the second choice?
Why is it when the army calls,
your there.
...
It tears at my heart,
It gnaws at my soul,
Its a knife to the gut,
It rules my life,
...
I keep people distant,
from afar I look whole,
happy.
But if they get too close,
...
Poetry has gotten me through many issues in my life; I hope that in some way my poems help someone else through their troubles.)
Family
Family is supposed to have your back,
Family is supposed to know you,
There are supposed to be no secrets with family,
There are supposed to be no lies with family,
Family is supposed to love each other unconditionally,
Family is supposed to be there for you,
There is supposed to be understanding in a family,
There is supposed to be trust in a family,
Family is supposed to be there for you,
Family is supposed to understand.
i relay like all of your poems
