Years have passed and my daughter Tiffany was starting kindergarten, oh how happy she would be.
To make new friends and in the world be free.
She loved her sister, but she wanted her journey to begin.
She was ready, which was a win, win.
She got onto the school bus, like a big girl, indeed.
She was very independent, her moms presence on that day, she didn't need.
Elementary school was a little hard, found out she had learning disabilities.
With more help at school, and help from her mom, maybe in learning she won't freeze.
By the time she was in grade 2, her mom and dad broke up.
It was a lot to handle, but she never was missing any love.
Their home became to quiet without their dad, getting mad.
Even though her mom and dad lived in separated homes,
She never felt alone.
Her little sister started having very bad tantrums,
They were going from moms place to dad's place, then the trouble begun.
Tiffany being in grade 5, started acting up in school with her friends.
It was an on going cycle that never ends.
Her school work didn't improve,
She had a lot to lose.
By the end of grade 5, she found out her best friend was moving away.
That summer, she was not okay.
She started gaining more weight,
Her life, was in the hands of her own fate.
After summer, she began a new year with no best friend.
It was her last year of elementary school, time to make amends.
Her cousin also moved away, her body was going through changes, she didn't understand.
A lot of change, for a girl of age 12, and her mom, and sister moved into a new home.
She never felt so alone....
