[Child of God]: 416.Poetry.My Story

I was born one early morn'
At the start of a brand new day
My parent's faces shone so bright
While in my mother's arms I lay.

While I grew and learned
With each and every year
I soon looked liked my mother
Like looking in a mirror.

I got into baseball
My dad was really good
So we practiced together
He taught me all he could.

Then I started school
Where I thought I'd make new friends
But kids can be very cruel
And would tease me days on end.

I had some special people
Who are now gone forever
But though they are gone
Forgetting them I would never.

Things and people change
As I gew and learned
And found great friends
Who my trust have earned.

I have a loving family
And friends who are great
I am alone no more
Unlocked are my prison gates.
