People tell me to get over it,
When they see what I write,
They say it’s just a phase,
That I will get over it,
But they don’t know….

Poetry is not about
How many words
You write

But rather
What words
You write

I can't see anything,
It seems like I've gone blind,
But I know I haven't,
It is just Dark
Light...
There is no light here,
At least not to my knowledge,
I've never been allowed to experience it,
The life I've lived for 17 years,
The people who adopted me 16 1/2 years ago,
It was never a part of my life and they never let it be,
I always went behind their back,
But I still have never experienced it.
