This is fictional. I wrote it just for the contest.
I was left in an alley at birth 
thrown away like a filthy rag
I never felt love or care 
just discarded and lost 
I was nobody 
down to the core
a tarnished 
nameless 
soul

I agree w/Jo. This is tragic write, but it is honest. Some people are discarded like trash. Powerful poem, Alexis. Love and hugs to you.

Sad, lonely and agonizing is your poem my friend. The form, the narrowing towards the bottom just gives this so much depth and feeling. But to this poem I say................................. And you were found, one rain filled night, by those who cared, and those of light, who lifted you, and said your name, so now your life, was not the same, for poets come, when there is need, with words of hope, from heart now bleed. :)
