Do not get overwhelmed
If you get overwhelmed you cry
2.dont cry infront of them
They will think your weak
3. Learn to fake smile
They don't care about your real emotions
4. Don't vent to anyone
Our family is perfect
5. Never allow someone to think less
Defend us at all costs except our name
6. If u lie don't get caught
We all have to at some point be smart
7. Never answer questions straight forward
We aren't to be open books
8. Children are seen
But never heard
9. If you brake any rules
You are no longer family we are exclusive

Like I'm not even in control of my

And maybe I'm not maybe I've never

But maybe I never will be because of my

written in these walls
are the stories that i cant replace
hidden i these walls
that i wish in could remake
I promise every morning
I will smile like this again
But I've been so broken
I don't even know where to begin
Cause the pain they've caused
Is sewn into my heart
Melanie Jackson Jul 2021
welcome to my brain
i was broke long ago
You can't fix md
Cant help me grow
I was lost long ago
And u won't save me
Because to many have tried
And just like you
They left when things got hard

i cant trust him
now ive got someone
But its cold in my heart
so cover me
Because home was a dream
till you came along
But you gave me false hopes
And now your gone
Melanie Jackson Jul 2021
love isn't supposed to
come with strings
its not supposed to
be begged for
but i always end up
Wishing you could give me
The love I needed
Melanie Jackson Jul 2021
I was never enough
And I never will be
You just wanted to use me
And I let you
that was my mistake
