So many families have been torn apart because the parents weren't there! But when they come back it can make things even worse. This is what this poem is about.

Because you weren't here

My life has fallen apart

Now your here

You took me away from everything I had

That you took away in the beginning

I have spent my life gaining it back

Just for you to come back and take it

You took me away from my friends

 

I know I love you

But you bring pain

You make me insane

I can't decide between you

And the pain you bring

Or the life I had before you

 

The loved ones I don't see anymore

Or the chance in my personality

All are a part of you

 

I have my sisters and brothers to think about now

I have then to love and protect

They don't remember all the pain

So I have to make sure they don't get hurt

 

I can't run away

You want me to fight

I have to hide my fear

My emotions are out of sight

Because you weren't here

I was okay

 

Now your here

And i'm torn

Please don't make this hard

I want to ignore the fear

I'm afraid to fall

But I have already fallen

It's above me to fix

All I can do is love my family

And carry on
