Mommy and Daddy

You guy seperated when
I was young,
6 to be exact.
It was hard for me to except,
Going to dad's
Every other weekend.
I have had times
When I blamed it on me
You guys told me
"It's not your fault."
I've learned that now
That I am 14.
It been hard not seeing you dad,
And it's not easy living with you mom.
You both have remarried nom.
And out of that I gained:
A stepmom, Laura
A stepdad, Harold
2 stepbrothers, Tylor & Freddy
2 new families: Heim & Sonnentag
Most imporant:
I have gained a whole new life.

Ewww...Divorce sucks. In my case though, I think it was for the best. My parents are much better people when they aren't together. But I completely understand how ya feel, not getting to see your dad. Tough situation. The poem was well done, like Sea said- your strength is potrayed so well here. Thanks for the read.

You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.

Divorce is always a very hard thing to deal with. I'm sorry you've had a hard time. Your parents are right when they tell you it's not your fault. I really liked this poem... nice outlet of emotions, there.

Feel better...

im felt an almost 3rd person perspective here... you spoke about something which was obviously such an impact on your life with such simplicity... i think the poem benifited from this... good strong piece

This was a very emotional poem in my view and it showed how strong you are to think of it as a new life and not the end of one. I really enjoyed this post it was very good, I found it very easy to relate to! Keep writing!
