in the winter,
i came home from school,
in the winter,
i came home and my mom never knew that i had my first kiss,
in the winter,
i got hit with a rifle across my face,
in the winter,
i shoveled snow while getting beat with wires,
in the winter,
i saw a snow owl,
in the winter,
i made a snow angel,
in the winter,
i was putting logs in wheel barrels
then pushing them up a hill,
in the winter,
i saw my gram get sick,
in the winter,
i made smores,
in the winter,
i started my life story book,
in the winter,
my mom's boyfriend found it and read it then burned it to pieces,
in the winter,
i got beat with a baseball bat for writing that book,
in the winter,
i hated my life,
in the winter,
i saw my mom and her boyfriend getting drunk while i was locked in my bedroom,
