34. In the Ghetto
(5/18/09)

In the ghetto, one goes to hell,
Where relationships
Drag on drearily.
Love is hard in the ghetto; 
Taking care of someone else
Is even harder,
Trying to balance family
And money.
A broken family
Might result,
But life goes on, life always goes on...

(To be continued...)

A/N: This is just a glimpse of the hardships of living in the ghetto; not sure if I got it all right, but I hope I got the gist of it down.
