Hope
She sat and thought about memories that were no longer there. Her life, Her family, Her future, Her happiness.. Where did it all go?. She used to be bright like an early morning day now she is dark like a cold and stormy night. She used to act as if she was like a angel from Heaven, Now she is like a demon from Hell. She is as cold as ice but she was once warm and affectionate. That was way before she lost everything.
So now she sits in a everlasting pit of fire knowing that the fault is her own. She is the reason she has nothing . She can't blame anyone else for her actions. It breaks her heart to see joyful people walk pass and smile at her. They are filled with hope , dreams, and love , They had everything she didn't.
Not a day went pass that she didn’t reminisce about the happiness she once felt in her life. The days when she woke up with a grin from ear to ear. The days when she walked around care-free. The days she would never get back. Too bad she got caught up. She was on her game at one point in her life if only she had shot the ball. If only she didn’t get distracted. If only she would have stayed focused.
She now has 3 main responsibilities she has to take care of with no help. Like I said before she has no one to turn to and if she did she wouldn't ask for help because she has too much pride. Pride is what got her in this situation in the first place, If she would've stayed level headed about her decisions she probably would still have her old life.
She was a beautiful, intelligent young lady who went after what she wanted. She now is burnt out mentally and physically. Her chasing after what she “ Wanted ” was part of the problem too. She wanted all the wrong things. Instead of wanting high school diplomas and college degrees she wanted to run the streets and live the fast life. I bet she wished she slowed down. I bet she wished she listened to her mother when she told her not to go down that route. I bet she wished she didn't fall for the trap.
Day after day , Night after night she sits and thinks about everything she could’ve been and everything she should’ve done. She wanted to be a nurse, oh how she loved the body. Tissue, cells, organs, she loved it all. She passed all of her biology tests, Matter of facts she passed all of her tests in every subject always. What a bright future that went to waste. She had such an uplifting personality , too bad it was dulled down. So what is there to do now? She has nothing else to lose. All she can do is sit and think about the memories that were no longer there.

I’ve been writing since I was 10 years old to let the real me out. I knew that my paper and pen would never judge me.
