My Poems

Growing Up With The Pain!

Growing up with the pain that people caused you.

You cry to me, but I don’t here you.

I wonder why there was no one there to hear your cries.

You learned to live with all those lies.

You thought that you had it under control,

But someone else came, and showed you that you don’t.

Once again you faced those feelings.

Now that you’re older you can face the truth,

And no one can make you feel the abuse.
