Rain
My mother named me after all the shit in her life. Rain, that’s what she called the troubled times. I was just another splash of a long storm. Three days after I was born she killed . . .

She came here our Christmas gift
She fit my stepmom's every wish.
At seventeen she'd been hurt,
But she got away with help.
And after a year of foster care,
where parts were hell and parts . . .

She looked like and angel
lying still
Around her neck she wore a cross
And to her that was like her ticket
to heaven
But she had earned that,
her trip to heaven, . . .

Once, not such a very long time ago there was this woman who changed my life. In the midst of having hers torn apart around her she took the time to help save mine. Now, I don't know where this woman . . .

I wait until my stepmom leaves
And then I sneak into a pantry with ease.
The bottle sits there glass and clear
A wrapper blue is called me there
Opened up with the twist of a cap.
So simple. . . .

Today I write of a man whom without I'd not be here today, my grandfather (my Bumpa). Four years ago on this day my Bumpa was in a car accident. He'd been drunk and was killed. Though I miss him . . .

Crew cuts and tight buns
Straight lines, precision, and obedience
Death and pain on all accounts
This is what it costs
Long days, hard nights
Often far away from home
Tears . . .

At this very second
someone is preparing to move on
to the next life
Her family surrounds her
Remembering old times
Crying and laughing
It's such a melancholy time
No one knows . . .

I am the girl who want to grow up fast
I am the girl who wants to forget the past
I am the girl who wants to live life full
I am the girl who lives life quietly
I am the girl who doesn't . . .

Last night I got into a fight with my stepmom, and so it turned into a fight with my dad. I had said "I'm a teenager, deal with it." Sherrie didn't like that response.
Dad's idea is "I'm the landlord, . . .

Hiding the scars doesn't change
What I did to myself
Maybe they'll fade someday
but that won't change my actions
Dark lines on my arms
I see them darker than others do
Possibly because . . .

I wanted someone to hold me
To tell me things would be okay
Even if they didn't know for sure
If or when they would be
I wanted someone to look at me
then kiss away all of the pain
of the cuts . . .

" Boo."
That's what he said to me. That's all he said. And he walked away, well I can't say he walked, more he glided, after all ghosts can't walk. They'd fall right . . .
