Our Family Tree

Our family tree,
It started with you and ended with me
You were the one to seal my fate
I can't change it because I'm to late
You were a drinker and so was your mother before
You drink and I watched as it burns you to the core
But very soon it wasn't enough
You turn to drugs and it was tuff
Kids at school would leer and sneer
All I want to do is disappear
So I tried my first drink and now I'm addicted
This result was really unpredicted
Are you proud of me now mum?
I've became just like you, a worthless scum
I've realised now its hard to climb up the social ladder
And each generation seems to get madder
So I'm going to stop this now,
Because frankly It's gone on to long and I don't understand how?
Therefore these are the reasons our family tree started with you and ended with me......

I have an ugly red one, it works like Prozac; y'know the type they say makes you high as clouds, and also it has a side effect; you shop like a maniac. I can say I do feel high when I'm out to shop.

Sad man sitting in the corner of shame, Sorry to say, but there's only you to blame. All the cats are now calling your name. I guess that's what you wanted, no shame. Little sad man, please have hope.

Shoot Up!

She was once a loving woman. Feisty and strong with opinion. Always been a bit too head strong. No man stuck around for too long. When they did she pushed them away.

Never, Better

It's a capital offence these days to tell the truth and not believe. I lay my secrets out on the table and hide my feelings underneath.

I was told today that I didn't know what a hard life was. Just because I didn't try and commit suicide, and cut my arms. It doesn't mean I had a perfect life.
