Issues
I know it is hard being 19,
But I got more issues than a subscription to a magazine.
My relationship,
Sinking like that titanic ship,
Lost at sea,
Don’t know if our relationship will last till my son turn 3.
I can’t make myself be happy,
The problems I try to rise above,
But the ball and chain
Around my leg is snug.
Keeping me from flying above the obstacles at hand,
My hourglass is down to its last grain of sand.
My life.... For it I have no plans.
Plain and simple, my future looks grim......
