  1. 41. I'm Sorry...Dad

    My Name is Shayla and I am 15 years old. People have been quite an inconsistent factor in my life, my Dad included. For years our relationship was on/off because of his lack of effort, but I always longed for that father/daughter relationship that I saw other young girls have. Now that I'm older, we go through stages of talking and not talking, but it seems to be more on my terms. It is a little sad, but I have my siblings, so I'm never alone and I love my life!

    I'm sorry you missed the day I came home.
    I'm sorry you left my Mum all alone.
    I'm sorry you missed the first time I walked.
    And I'm sorry you missed the first time I talked.

  3. 42. My Dad

    I recently got in touch with my dad after 14 years. Everyone warned me not to get my hopes up but I took no notice and I expected him to be amazing. When I met him, I thought he was great, but after about 2 weeks I realized that he wasn't interested in me at all. I have a little sister who he adores. I come second best to her all the time. I'm not jealous of her, but I wish he wouldn't make it quite so obvious that he prefers her to me. It hurts me so much.

  5. 43. What It's Like

    I wasn't raised by a good mother and father. I raised myself. I'm a 14 year old girl, and things have been like this since I was 5. I was continuously in the middle of my parents' fights. Constantly moving and having to make new friends. I wrote this poem just recently, trying to describe how I feel now. It ended up being a letter to someone I never thought existed. Things are a lot worse than they are described. It's time for people to stop putting up with this in their lives. I'm starting now.

    Why do some abuse the ones they love the most and pay a price that leaves them out of the house?

    Hurrying to pack up all your stuff in the middle of the night.
    All because your Mother and Father are in another abusive fight.
    You hear all that yelling and screaming at such a young age.
    It feels like a scared dog that's trapped in its cage.

  19. 57. The Night Guard

    This poem is for all the children who handle situations beyond their control and still try to navigate their daily lives. As the oldest girl in a family of five, it was my job to calm the younger ones on nights when our home situation got out of control. As a substitute teacher, I identified with the kids who were having a hard time focusing and keeping up with their peers. My hope is that this poem will help some teachers identify and understand these students who are in their classes.

    Do they know I can hear their fight? Maybe they just don't care
    that their child is locked in fright, heart pounding in both ears.
