I
I had
This way
About me
You never
Understood
You never tried
Beautiful dresses
Were not going
To take the place
Of Envy
Lack of love…irreverence
And most of all
Protection
Why? To all those
Who know
Who they are & what they knew
It’s a little late
To pretend
This journey is mine
And mine alone
Feeling alone?
Your conscience
Finally getting
The best of you.
That’s your cross
To carry and bear
Mine is never to forget
My inner child
Who deserved
So much more
There is
Such a thing
As too late
You look like fools
Trying to pretend
You care
Repudiated…
Now it’s my turn…
Thank the heavens above
For my grandmother,
My Resilience
And my mind
Bringing heaven
And hell
And most of all
The deepest love
You no longer deserve
