Poem: “My Life”
My Life
My life is great…
My life is surrounded by real and fake…
My life is laid in jail for a mistake…
To have a successful life
It’s never too late…
My life is good
A girl, two children, own house
So taking care of my responsibilities is understood…
My life is about my family and not a hood…
My life is filled with love and joy…
This child that my girl is 4 months pregnant with…
I hope it’s a boy
I don’t want my kids to be in jail for life
So I got to explain to them about
My life…
