A Teenage Hardship

She did not mve in her chair

She did not have anything to say

All she could do was stare

Until she was able to look away

There were many tears she cried

And soon enough anger did arise

Especially when her parents tried

To dry her swollen eyes

She tried and tried but could not understand

Why this big change in her life had to be

While facing all the pain at hand

She asked herself, "What about me?"

She did not ask anyone for this

Nor would she ever want for it

All she wanted was to live in bliss

She did not want any pain not a bit

She could not comprehend, why she could not stay,

It was all she wanted, more then anything

Even if it meant being away,

From her famly and there loving.

She would pray every day and night

Asking and hoping for the best

Holding her hands together tight

Putting God to the test.

No one knows who she really is

They connot tell her how she will feel

They will not be with her through all fo this

None of them will be there to help her heal.

As the boxes came, to begin the journey

She could hear her heart thump thump thumping

She would not help at all, not even for money

Her legs would just walk out and continue walking.

As each and every day passed

It was a reminder of what was soon to come

Everything was happening so fast

All she could do was be glum

She tried to make everyday last

And make sure she left with memories

Knowing that she did everything and had a blast

Spending time with friends and their families

At the end of the day, she knew she could not

Be angry at the world forever

So, she decided to take a shot

And tried to be a little clever

Adnt trick her mind into thinking

That it was not that bad

She will use her writing

To let out the pain to keep from being mad.

After she wrote out all her pain

She would have a book

That would lead to fame

And never again would she have to see the look

That meant that she would have to change

Her entire life around

Ande be somewhere she found strange

And have to feel like her life is upside down.
