FAMILY

 Family will be the greatest treasure,
You will ever find.
A monument that stands,  
That will forever shine.
It is family we shall cherish most because;
It was them that had brought us to life.
An unbreakable bond we all still hold,
Because family’s love intends to unfold.
But we intend to point fingers when
Tragedy strikes.
An internal wound we all feel,
Leaving us emotionless.
No stitches only scars,
That makes us heartless.
We fight endlessly for nothing,
Burning bridges, shattering hearts, leaving scars,
Only to prove who’s wrong & who’s right?
It’s sad we rather be wrong without saying an apology,
Than when we are right; preaching about everything.
Blood suppose to be thicker than water,
But within time blood can be tainted.
Whatever happened in loving one another?
In treating people how we wanted to be treated,
Lending a hand being gracious towards each other,
Only because it was the right thing to do.
Now we lend a hand; as a favor,
Something that I will never understand nor do.
Only family can love you and hate you,
That can build you or break you,
That can guide you but also mislead you.
It is family that we will forever love,
Because we hug and hold onto,
The feeling of endless love,
To cry and laugh; to heal a broken heart,
And to show I am them,
Because it is my family that I cherished most.
I am my family’s monument that will forever shine.
The greatest treasure they will ever find.
