I don’t know where to start

my life is just falling apart

from being taken from my home

I’m speaking straight from the dome

My world is crashing

lights still flashing

my dad dead

now how do I get fed

I’m now in foster care

my life just isn’t fair

I’ve done messed up

now drinking from these styrofoam

cups

I’m locked up in here

now living in fear

not knowing when I’m coming home

not knowing when I’ll see my family

Sitting in my cell crying

while my dreams go up there flying.
