Michelle L. Leblanc Poet Rhyme

Trapped Emotions

"Old Emotions"
Written by Michelle L. LeBlanc 
Copyright: April 14, 2022

Old emotions trapped deep inside 
Don't always surface 
Until one spits in my eyes 

Deep rooted pain throughout my past 
Began as a little girl 
Hoping rejection wouldn't last 

Growing up, as years went by 
It didn't get much easier 
So often I dried my eyes 

Even with all the talents I had 
My insecurities sang stronger 
Longing for friends & love of a dad 

Now I choose to look deep inside 
Shining some light 
Finding  strength when I cry

Much I really don't understand 
The depths of the pain and hurt 
Still buried in the sand 

Where did it come from, and why
As early as I can remember 
Something was always hurting inside 

But from it all, I now can see
That each of my stumbling blocks 
Gives me steps to be free

I will learn and I will grow 
Finding strength within
Facing insecurities toe to toe!
