Sonnet 2 Poem by Florence Badejo

Even though I have had a rough childhood
I can still take the time to live my life
I might not do some of the things I should
But that's just from being stuck in the strife
So many conflicts that I did endure
But I do not want to go back to then
The pains I wish I could throw out the door
I pray in order to do that, Amen
Broken to pieces are my emotions
It's like I tried to glue them together
But some parts fall due to the corruptions
From all the past pains that came from thither
All I can do now is regain my strengths
Then my happiness can grow to more lengths
