Homecoming

when I came back home
nineteen-eighty-six
Mom says not normal
making niece so scared
even my best friend
said I was bad
making me sad
now times have changed
new family
with new friends
and new trends
now I write
poems
latest
trend

I have written diminished hexaverses before! I don't understand why that wasn't diminished hexaverse? Thank you Andrea.
