The person spit words out at me and my family and they weren't good words.

"The bank has come to a final decision and y'alls farm is now ours. You have missed too many payments and it's over." Said the man.

The farm was my home for all 16 years of my life I knew no other place. The animals were my friends and now it's all going to be gone.

Piece by piece my heart fell apart.

Then it was silent. As I heard the rooster call out I got up and ran out of the house.

My life was over, the farm, the animals and my entire childhood. Growing up I used to always ride the horses and feed the chickens every morning.

They can't take that away.

THEY WON'T.
