What a Release
(true feelings)
I stroll down Every poem I ever written.
Every release feels great and uplifting.
Holding on these memories that's been hurting
Felt like eternity, that's these feelings hiding.
I now release them in poetry.
For I could not do it when I was a writer.
foster care youth United magazine, it was the name. I didn't feel it then
Not even my editor couldn't get me to speak.i was like a mute.
I used my nickname Angie to Shorten my name at that time.
For my real birth name Nagella
couldn't be pronounce by many
The feeling is different. I even stop using the nickname.
And without falling asleep like I used to in therapy at 16
A meditation without confusion and disturbance what a relief.
I am no longer depress about my parents for what they did.
But only anger towards those that should of known better.
I am glad I use this very method. I hope soon this will surpass from my very soul.
