I Am Strong

They tell me I am strong.  I don’t feel strong with my tear streaked face.
I feel………… misplaced
                                                  Lost in space…..
                                                                                               erased 

They tell me I am strong.  I don’t feel strong with my heart so heavy and torn.
I feel…………..deformed          
                                                 Forlorn………..
                                                                                              Unborn
