Nothing More Than a Dream Date: Friday, 1st November 2002 @ 12:55:00 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: TvVisTecI_IvIincI The American dream is no more than a vision, The hardest workers always get used. Unless your on top you'll never be happy, Because those on the bottom just get abused. We lived on the bottom just my mom and I, While my father was sitting in jail. She had three jobs, I was always alone, My life back then was the definition of hell. My mother's the hardest worker I know, But she never moved up in her job. The promotion went to the president's nephew, With all this unfairness she could do nothing but sob. This poem is Copyright © TvVisTecI_IvIincI Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
