This poem is about my birth mother. She chose to stay with my father after the judge told her to leave him and get a good job and a stable home for her kids or she would lose us, but she chose to stay with him. Because she chose him over her own kids: me and my two brothers Tyler at the age of 4, Ashton at the age of 2, and me at the age of 6 were put in foster care.
So I hope everyone will like it!
P.S. I have written other poems too, so if ya'll could would you read them and tell me what you think about them! If so that would be great and it would mean a lot. Thank you bunches!! : )

I'm Finally Wanted
Raven Short has had a troubled past. She's been abused and unwanted since she can remember. Until a special someone comes into her life, and pulls her from her troubles. They're a great couple, and have a great life. So nothing can mess that up... right? ⚠️WARNING⚠️: I have the grammar of a 2 yr. old, so there will some definitely be spelling mistakes. Also this is a second book. The first book is call I'm Unwanted(very original title, I know) so you will definitely need to read first that to understand what's going on. And finally, I am currently in high school, and college. So I have a lot of homework and assignments I get assigned weekly. Meaning updates might not be that often. Maybe once or twice a week, maybe less maybe more, I really don't know. So yeah, I guess that's all. (Book 1 out of 7, I'm Unwanted) (Book 2 out of 7, I'm finally Wanted) (Book 3 out of 7, Perfectly Ourselves) (Book 4 out of 7, Not so Perfect) (Book 5 out of 7, Beautiful Crazy) (Book 6 out of 7, His Sunflower)Complete
Son of Fire
When I was born, the hospital my mother was in caught fire. She didn't make it due to severe burns, so I was put in a foster home. I suffer from dyslexia and ADHD, but also a curse. Wherever I go, fire follows. My first foster house burned down and three people died, the second one burned and this time, no one died. By the fifth foster home, I was a danger to others and I wasn't allowed in a house with other children. It was as if the world had cursed me to always destroy others, to kill, and to take. I never wanted to go to a new home, I tried to stay away, tried to seclude myself, but a boy with chocolate brown eyes and a leather jacket decided he wouldn't let me.Complete
