[hometext] => Reflections on changes in our family according to my perspective as a young teen
[bodytext] => REFLECTIONS Father a year has passed Since the day of the news The day you decided To give up and to lose I remember little Mostly those awful nights Filled with ugly words And endless fights Love once so sweet Became bitter and sour Behind closed doors Yelling hour upon hour Brother and I Many nights lie awake How can we solve These problems we make Mom finally said “Enough is enough” With the help of an angel She drew strength she got tough We packed everything Across country we did ride Off to a new life Three of us side by side Things were not easy It was a rough start But slowly the tears dried News songs in our heart Some nights I would cry For my angel to hear Then the phone it would ring Or on the doorstep he’d appear At times we all felt We would drowned in the tide Our angel never to busy To come sit by our side He provided us support Courage gained to stand alone A new kingdom we built Constructed all on our own Sadly mom now you are gone But two angels have arrived Though it feels like winter I know we will survive Two familiar voices have risen Put upon them new roles Filled with so much love And such warm kindred souls A new journey in life A new family has begun The voices give us strength The strength to grow as one I look back upon you father You always were away All the issues you had Kept you at bay Leaving so soon You will miss out on much I hope that my prayers Give you a warm gentle touch And now I look back I am angered and sad You may have been our father But never made it to dad -S-S- [comments] => 1 [counter] => 231 [topic] => 23 [informant] => OhSaige [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

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. ©
