My Story

Born December 23 1999
I was a little cutie all happy and fine
Put in Foster Care at 1 year old
Didn’t understand I wasn’t dare told
At 3 years old I was adopted by my dad
Life was amazing I wasn’t no longer sad
He took care of me and gave me what I needed
I was actually happy I couldn’t believe it
Daddy’s Little Girl was my favorite words
I couldn’t dare see daddy hurt
Daddy had a baby who name was Tre
He bought so much joy no words could explain
But God took Tre he died in his sleep
I felt so sick all I could do was shriek
I grew up and began to see the world
I saw the pain and all the hurt
I took a left and left God’s navigation
Not knowing it would bring separation
Started to disobey the law
The future I never saw
Got caught and got locked up
Hating how my dad was being tough
I had to learn it was the only way
I was so mad I had no words to say
I hated life and wanted to die
So I began to cut until I saw the sky
I felt life fading and I was ready
But God wasn’t he said be steady
He let me stay gave me another chance
I didn’t want it I wanted to be dead
Kept getting in trouble Kept disobeying
I ignored what everybody was saying
I hated the law and just wanted to die
I felt so alone all I could do was cry
Finally God taught me a lesson
By sending me away for many seasons
I was locked up 2 years
Thinking about brings me to tears
While away I learned things
My life has something special to bring
I might not know now
But God will get me there somehow
Even though my past is gone
It will always be a part of me because of it I have grown
