A BROKEN SHOOT

As I grew up
Young and tender
Strong and energetic
Nothing to wonder
Like a young flower
was ready to blossom
Aiming at the top
East or West
To be the best.
Big sister seemed amazing
Her love for me promising
Always showering me with praises
'You are going places'
But,jealousy was hidden beneath
Her beautiful smile
My half sister
Never cared about the blood ties
We hailed from the same father
We were one blood
We are siblings.
Days turned into months and years
Big sister grew more cold
Never wanted to hold
And cherish family ties
Cruel she became
Daily she threatened
My name to defame
After all l wasn't her blood
Then,one day
Daddy kicked the bucket
His breath gave way
To the malady therein
Back to the solo he went
Leaving us hopeless
Under the cruel hands
Of big sister
Our land she sold
My mother she kicked out
Our world was shattered
Each new day
Brings back those memories
Childhood memories
A BROKEN childhood.
