A lot of you have read my First Poem
In One Lifetime....Here is Part 1, the begining!

So you won't be confused from the original poem 2nd to this, but posted first sorry!

I did not know I had a brother yet, we met when I was 7, we had the same mother whom I later found out had died when I was a Baby. My brother grew up in her family,and
they declined to take me too!

All tucked in bed toasty warm
but when I woke this child broke.

Where is that man the one
with those gentle hands?

That stupid water
too many times I was a bother!

He had gone away as it turned to days
maybe if I go where we usually lay
he'll come back if I just stay

well that didn't work
so I'll go play
there in my room right where i stood
no more bed, and where are my toys?

I felt sad
and thought I was bad
maybe it was me that made my Daddy so mad.

Oh, mommy I am so sorry
I am filled with lots of worry
Am I too late to stop this fate?

Who is this I would wonder?
This old lady who seemed like thunder
Wait, where are you going my lonely
mother?

Please don't leave me here I begged,
but this old woman she was persistant.
Just go was whispered, this child I share
She's better off in my care.

I tried so hard to be brave and just except.
It was hard trying to hide, as
everything inside felt like it died.

After awhile it wasn't too sad,
and at least there were pictures,
especially my Dad.

The old lady told me she was my Nunny,
and she could be very funny.
I liked when she spoke of my Dad,
but Nunny called him Sonny, that too
was really funny.

This had happened when I was 4
all because my Dad robbed a store!
Then when I became older it was explained
that the woman who dropped me off there with Nunny,
turned out; she wasn't my Mommy!

The rest of the story didn't turn out ever so funny, it's contents I fear would be innapropriate here........Your own imagination can certaintly take you there, enter only if you Dare?

Early memories that rut the road of progress and happiness, I hope your road can be repaired and the sadness then take another path. You are here my friend with many many choices, may you make one that leads to happiness and better outcomes. A sad story, but good you can share.

An interesting if somewhat disjointed story, much the way a child remembers traumatic moments....fragmented, yet crystal clear in many ways. Understanding some of it from a parallel (though different) disjointed personal family happening.
