Leilani's Poetry: Fast Life

Fast Life


As much as I long to see your face,
You're locked away in that place.
For what you've done in your past
Sentenced to years, for living fast.
You should have known that life won't last.
I feel lost without him in my life.
I don't understand why it has to be this way.
This man was my dad and his decisions were bad
To think about it, really makes me quite sad.
My mom is only one person, who
Takes care of more than me and my two brothers.
It seems like everyone leans on her,
But to lean, she has no other.
Dad, why did you leave us in a position like this?
You left us without sending any help our way.
That you'll soon grow up, is all that I pray.
