at that time, and in that place, the life was nice
even in hands of joy
yes, the knife can slice
and dice,
straight away at a young man's insanity
and when the blade bearer
meets with his family
it's a tragedy
mother gone, 3 months in junior year
SAT's comin up, first grades will soon appear
but fuck that
mom's gone
this school shit's a joke
switched from cigarettes, to pot mixed with coke
from alcohal to cough syrup
girlfriends to sluts
while ignoring each message God sends his butt
self blame
with nights crying
and nowhere to turn
he doesn't ever bring it up, just to spare the burn
drunken with sadness
inhibitions tossed aside
he used to be good, but he lossed his pride
then his selfishness subsided
he selfprovided
himself with the energy to get on and ride it
and think about his mom
instead of his sadness
what she would think
if she was here for this madness
she would'nt've had it, it would hurt her so
sometimes in the dark, we need to search for glow
he did this and found it
did what his mother would ask
got back to school, and decided he should pass
kicked all the drugs,
and then, met a nice girl
three years later
he knew she was the right girl
within a week of his change he got a dream...
his mom sat down looking milkier then cream
it would seem, that his mom was there for a reason
first she started bleeding
faiure was leading
in the cause of death that this boy felt was on him
but she rose up
as if touched by a strong whim
she kissed him, said she missed him, went goodbye
every time he thought back
the strong man would cry
but these tears of joy, should be nothing of concern
because he let his mom free
when it was her turn
she went up, after waiting at her son's mercy
"back then i looked up and let the stars search me
but now when i look up
in hopes of fair advice
i know that my moms living up in paradise..."
and i know that i want to share her life
her everlasting life...

Inspirational!
Little Brother,
This poem is filled with so many emotions. I will not tell you that it will be any easier. What I will confess to you is that where you seek to find yourself, there you will be. It is by choice that we yearn for "paradise". Your mom is smiling on you for this work and the work you are struggling to accomplish. Keep that forward motion, it will serve you well. This is one hell of a poem. The rhymes within the lines are stellar. You do have "the gift"! Never let loose of the pen. I LOVE YOU!
Your Big Sis'

"sometimes in the dark, we need to search for glow"
This was my favorite line of all, though I think it would read nicer....
"sometimes in the dark, we need to search for the glow "
That line was one of the deepest most meaningful parts to this whole peice, and very insightful
always
