Kelley Snyder Poet Free verse

I Never Was

I never was....
Daddy's little girl
sweetly spoiled
....softly held
gently nurtured
....fiercely protected
never beaten
....very popular
sought after
....never pretty
young long
....irresponsible
completely sane
....right about people 
a bad mother
.....pieced back together
thought about twice
....I never was
Heard when I screamed

Carole Duet October 8, 2016 at 12:01 AM Hi Kelly! I read your poem and just wanted you to know I know exactly how you feel...but it gets better. Great write! Carole Kelley Snyder October 8, 2016 at 8:48 AM Thank you Carole... it's a shame we feel this way but we have to start healing somewhere, yes..?

Daniel Turner July 28, 2016 at 11:12 AM I hear you! Very honest write and hopefully therapeutic. My advice would be to focus on what you do have, such as talent and a voice. Keep writing! Kelley Snyder October 8, 2016 at 8:47 AM Thank you, Daniel...it was good to get this one out. I appreciate the feedback.
