Family Curse
My family / didn't warn me
of the curse.
They didn't warn me.
The leaves are dark clouds,
branches,
brilliant lightning,
the truck,
a pillar ----collum
of lamentations.
The roots
goes deep
deep into the despair.
My family
didn't warn me
of the shadow
that haunts us.
They didn't warn me
of the family tree.
The ghost
that's called depression.

Hauntingly dark poem,
clever aspects to it
as-well.
They didn't warn me
of the family tree.
The ghost

Very well written.
