Memories
All I need in life is neither family or fame
All that I need is actually something unusual for a person my age
Now you may be thinking, is it a Bible or maybe even a love?
It is neither of these things,
For it is something that made me who I am today
It is memories, the good and the bad
I was made into who I am because of my past memories
The hurt I went through, the happiness I experienced
Without it I would be nobody
I remember back on that scared little girl
Who watched her mom and dad argue every night
The girl who was forced to grow up for her little brother's sake
The one who had to face the taunts and harsh words of others at school
The girl who never fitted in with nobody but her brothers
The one who had discovered that her mother had a boyfriend on the side
My life was't fair nor was it pretty
I was picked on, shattered, and broken many times
I was forced to grow up sooner than normal
But my memories made me who I am today
My memories inspired me to become different than my parents
To dream of having a future unlike my past
No I don't need money or fame
Family is important but I don't really need it
All I really need is myself and my memories
