remember all those time you drove us here and there?
to soccer the mall just about everywhere,

and faking sick on those monday mornings,
healthy the night before i gave no warnings,

i was feeling fine it was clear to see,
but i wanted a day just mommy and me,

it seems like things changed overnight,
now almost grown you see me in a new light,

one day i'll make you proud i will,
though it will take some time to get over this hill,

one day when i'm ready, i'll come back home,
back to the life and hell i've known,
and all thats left in time to reminise

If you Don't mind I will show you some tricks.
(meter 11?three breaks?)

//Remember those times: you drove us here and there,
To soccer practice, the mall- everywhere,
(two breaks)
How I faked sick on those Monday mornings,
Or that I had been healthy the night before?

I felt fine, it was clear to see past my act,
that I wanted a day just mommy and me, (But means a change in decision)

Everything in my life changed overnight,
Almost grown up you see me in a new light,
(Three breaks)
One day, I'll make you proud, I promise will,
though to make it over this hill will take time,(I think it sounds better, though I killed the rhyme)

One day, when I'm ready, I will return home:
Back to the life and hell I have learned to know.
All I have left for time is to reminisce//


I generally like this poem.  I wanted to help with the flow, but that isn't my strong area either.
