Ashamed

I shy away with so many to blame,the childhood I had was so much pain,growing up wasn't easy,I wished some one would have freed me, at the time I was only a child but the people around me was so very wild,I'm all grown up now and it's a thing of the pass,but all I can say is I'm free at last,

A touching verse...yet it seems you have no reason to be ashamed as you were just a child...place the blame where it belongs and remember the power of prayer. Cynthia

Poignant write this! Love the positivity at the end - most people don't let go of their childhood fears. To be free, that's what we all aspire to. Nice!
