This is about my family. My parents are getting a divorce and I needed to write about it and this is what I came up with.
Thanks.


Family.

i want my family back,
i want that sense of security that it brings.
i want the feeling that what i return home to,
is something happy,
something that i belong to.
Not a house the reeks of history that isn't mine.
i wear a key,
and a dolphin around my neck.
My mum and my dad, together.
It rests above my heart,
and it's the last remnants of my family.
Every morning,
Just before I open my eyes,
I wish that they will open to my room,
and be in the house that has my sense of family.
But every morning,
just before i open them,
I know it won't happen,
I know, that it will never be the same.

This poem clearly shows just how much we sometimes yearn for things to just go back to how they were before. Its sad that it hardly ever happens that way. Charlie
