    Wasted Childhood

    Name calling,
    Tears falling.
    Always fighting,
    Parents pointing,
    Wasted Childhood!


    Teenage years go by,
    Same things happening.
    Parents pointing,
    Always blaming.
    Boys are mean to me,
    Am i ugly?
    Wasted Childhood!


    Adulthood worsens,
    Years of hatred.
    A mask of humanity,
    Lies and Disguise.
    Darkness rears its ugly head,
    Why not end it and be dead?
    Wasted Childhood!


    Parents still pointing at me,
    "Point your finger at me again,"
    "And i'll point it right back at you!"
    Years and fears from everyone,
    Has kept me from finding true love.
    All because of my childhood,
    When they were able to have one.
    Could all my pain and suffering,
    Been saved from it all these years?
    Instead of being nothing,
    But what i had,
    Wasted Childood years!

    A very sad tale of what many children go through in these days we live. Might poems like this provoke parents to show more regard for the welfare and character developement of their offspring. It is hard to get it all together after you become an adult and no proper upbringing. A well told story in poem.

    Why do people treat their children so poorly? Such disastrous consequences follow...so sad. Like Ladypooh said, God has more for you, just ask Him. You take care...good poem, insightful.

    I feel you on this poem. I think alot of people do. We are what our parents made us to be. But sometimes we just have to overcome....

    wow this is truly deep. Hits home. I look back now as an adult and laugh. i can do the things when i couldnt as a kid. Now im an adult and say sue me. and laugh because i help my kids have fun

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
