hurt pain and sorrow sonnet for hw

Cindy Nevaeh Collins. If only I was there.
To see you before they announced that you died.
I was no where near to even see or hear.
I felt like I wanted to cry inside.
But I held it in; whenever I come to buffalo I see your ashes
I have hurt and pain to know you’re somewhere better on the bright side.
Up with god I fell like praying for your chances.
I know you’re looking down and it makes me want to cry
But it okay because you’re in a better place which is good on the upside
I would never say goodbye because sooner or later ill be up there too but I just want to say I never stopped caring about you. And your big sister loves you.
Good bye Cindy Nevaeh Collins <3  r.i.p

red shot marilyn monroe


Marilyn Monroe was a strong survivor she
lived through all her years as they passed behind her
nearly smothered at 2 didn't know what to do
nearly raped at 6 and that didn't get fixed
lived with orphans while her mom was ill
mental institute is where she practically lived.
Marilyn's dad was nowhere to be found
left her in that dirt that dusty old pile. getting paid
a nickel let me minus by one she would use that penny
to go to church may the lord help her through all the hurt.
