Poetry: Momma said

by Willow Lissette

Created on: September 27, 2008

Mama said,"You will listen".

I never did.

Mama said,"Stay in school."

I dropped out.

Mama said, "Don't do drugs."

I did.

Mama said,"Stay away from that man."

I went closer.

Mama, I shoud of listened to you.

I was young and stupid though.

I was stubborn and care free.

I did what I wanted,

Then I paid the price.

I love you mama,

Next time I'll listen.
