Immigrant Parents

I’m a girl, whose only fifteen,
a Hispanic girl, with immigrant parents.
Parents who have gone through so much
and still do.
It’s disappointing.
Parents who get up so early and come home so late,
to be able to make sure their kids are straight.
Parents who didn’t get a very good education
but still do what they can to see their children happy!
knowing that its not just one.
It’s disappointing.
How they still get discriminated,
mistreated,
because of their race,
because they don’t know English that well.
It’s just disappointing.
How they are amazing people, great personalities,
and still get done wrong.
It’s just disappointing.
