Poem
(3/3/12) We was an accident - like two cars in a crash Our lives were tossed, turned upside down, trashed We were the remains of life s destructive path. We no longer had value or worth And it seemed like it was that way since birth We was like old pieces of furniture Used, abused, and broken in two What more could we do. All the people saw was the outer frame But could not see what the inside contained They could not see the strength and beauty That lied within- and the outer beauty That once had been. Their eyes only saw what their minds perceived It to be -and did not see the reality. They could not see the hurt or pain That we held so deep inside To the point that we would cry. Like the oceans that hide their mysteries There is so much that you do not see. We have treasures buried in our soul That once it’s shown - you want to hold. We are the inner you that has longed to be free But was chained up deep inside Cowering in dark corners where you would hide. Now you are free to explore the inner soul And find that your life you can control. Break the chains that have bound you for so long And let your heart sing and rejoice in your new found self For in this world there’s no one else
