Shuana's P.O.V
**FLASHBACK**
I made it home after hours of walking due to the house I call my home being so isolated from the rest of the community.

This is my childhood home, my grandparents passed it down to my single mother and then it will be passed to me.

It's not much but it hold many memories and just like the ceiling they're many holes of my childhood but one good memory of the day all my family members use to come and have a cookout on the grass.

No one was there to bother us or watch us we would just be us.

I smile at the thought but then it slowly disappears.

Because that time is gone.

It's a rundown old house that we still live in.

I climb up the stairs to be greeted by the baby crying.

I roll my eyes and my mood gets sour to see my mother holding her feeding her what's left of the powdered milk.

Even though she's too young to start drinking water that's what she'll have to take.

"Evening " I greet my mother as I enter the bedroom and pull up the curtain we use as a door.

As it gets dark the light starts to dim and flicker.

When will this generational poverty end.
