Poem -

what went wrong

We used to be so happy, that life was just too

Perfect when my mom and dad used to be too

Close to those they love, those they admired and treasured

Mostly, suddenly things changed

All fathers from the same feathers

Abused our mothers, all from the same features

Parenthood was buried under the world

Our parents started conserving alcohol and smoking drugs

 As the youngsters started suffering

The consequences of our parent’s action in rugs

As I run to the left I can see my mother holding a bottle

Drunk, as I run to the right I see my father holding

A weapon to beat me, I run to the front I see criminals

All in one eye , combined together I step to the back

I see all the distractions to success were should I go

As I feel fade in my life that time, I am hungry

Crying asking myself what went wrong on the middle

I stood, I fall down on both my knees on the dry soil

Knowing that I have no strength to fight them all

As tears run from my eyes to the surface of the earth

As my dreams shatter and memories I forgotten

I pray god to help me find a way to escape this nightmare

A nightmare that locked me up in this unusual vendetta

Like the devil I can’t fight them as I am afraid I wish I was a ruler

I would have underlined good deeds unpunished

If I were a pencil a would rewrite the their wrongs

And if I were time I would turn it back to those happy times we all shared.
