[title] => But look at who you've become.

[hometext] => Some people grow up with terrible lives. They go through things most people could never imagine. This can make them either a stronger, more driven, more loving person. Or the opposite. This poem is inspired by my friend.
[bodytext] => They stole your innocense Your light-hearted childhood And replaced it with death Heartache Drugs Abuse And nightmares They made you do things They made you see things They had no right! They tried to rip apart every shred of light in your life But they can't take your hope Your soul They wrapped a noose of lies tight around your precious neck They made you bleed out your pain They took you in their grips and broke your bones They broke you down Back then there wasn't much you could do They blamed you They made it so hard for you to get by They opened up your eyes to the evil in this world And now You can't close them You flinch at the raise of a hand You cower at any angry man You give in to anything premiscuous You've fallen in love with drugs Yet you despise alcohol (Reminds you of her breath, her death) You're haunted by unsettled spirits No sleep No sleep for you tonight Your pain - you let it all bleed out Then live your life laughing The metal screams into your ears The wisdom is settled in your eyes The pain is seen in your scars The rebellion is seen in your look One look at you And you can see your past Now you're older You can stand up for yourself You won't let it happen anymore They stole your innocense You never got a proper childhood They had no right! They tried to rip apart every shred of light in your life But they can't take your hope Your soul Drugs and friends - your only bliss You don't give a **** what the price is No sleep for you tonight Here come the nightmares Here come the hauntings Look now, you're older You can stand up for yourself You have to take the first step to save yourself - and you have! One look at you and you can see your past Get to know you And you can see the person you've become They boke you down Time and time again But you built yourself back up stronger Just look at who you've become!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
