My Little Kingdom

 

I lived with my mother and father

In the blossoming country of England

The air was always crisp and soft

I was in my own little kingdom

 

I could smell the freshness in the air

The cows were faintly mooing in night

The cool breeze rustling my coloring book

My life seemed perfect and right

 

Until my kingdom had split apart

I moved to a different place

My mother and I alone

To me it was just another air base

 

From then on I have never been the same

I was like a crab, tight in my shell

My mother, constantly away

From her it was evermore a farewell

 

Hawaii is where I met my first love

He was vast and never ending

So many mysteries lived within

His deep blue’s bending and blending

 

He was called the sea

The ocean is my soul

Left behind it waits for me

It was my heart it stole

 

After constant traveling

I found another new place

Its heat like the burning core

Here is where I have found my grace

 

Arizona is my home now

But the ocean is still in my heart

Here is where I now reside

Here is where I get my fresh start

 

My dad is remarried now

It was like a jab to the stomach

Do not get me started on the siblings

For a young child this was a far plummet

 

My mom met someone too

This time a jab to the heart

Again more siblings to come along

I was just being torn apart

 

My life was completely different

Too many new faces

The stress causing nightmares

My past was blurred and faded

 

But now I do not know what I would do without

They molded me into the person I am today

I love them all so much

My life is no longer grey

 

Here I am on my way

Soon I will be on my own

But to know I have so many

Has reinforced my bones

 

In high school I have encountered numerous personalities

My bonds with friends

My bonds with teachers

Will be sure to last to the very end

 

England, Germany, Hawaii, Colorado, Arizona

They all carry a fragment of me

From all them I carry a story

From the desert to the sea

 

Because of the traveling

I now know my path

Where I am going in life

The world is ready to feel my wrath

 

Because I have found my passion

I have found my love

I have found my light

I have found my little kingdom
