Young Girl Losing Her Mother Poems Death Life Adolescence

Call Me Sonya Grey
A Young Girl's Poems
About Death, Life & Adolescence
SONYA TUPONE LLOYD
This personal collection of poetic verse is at once inspiring and challenging. Beginnng with the loss of her mother at age nine, Sonya began collecting her thoughts in 40 poems in a diary from early childhood through her twenties. She describes the daily battles of self-image and self-expression she experienced growing up after the passing of one parent and the estrangement of another. With the death of her mother, Sonya lost a part of everything she had known. Two states away, she finds herself with a different family, school, friends, home and a new name. The verses written during this time are one woman s exploration of her raw, emotional responses to dramatic life changes. This is Sonya's story.

My mum died in a car accident when i was 14, she was picking me up from a party i wasnt meant to be at, she was angry at me for sneaking out and yelling -- then we were hit.

She died instantly.

My dad gets drunk alot because of it

He gets abusive too

I miss you mum

i'm sorry.

@assasian29 How sad it is, we are incapable of watching over each other..or perhaps a fear of slipping along the way to greed and ego?
