Normal.

Normal.

A Poem by M
"

Been feeling the stress today.

"
There was once a time I thought I was normal
A time when I thought that’s how everyone’s life was
Turns out I was wrong
And everything that happens was far from normal
It’s hard to think back
At what used to be
But I’m trying my hardest
To not let it define me
I always have this ache
When I think back to what you did
An ache I just can’t shake
I wish you didn’t see me in the way you did
I wish you treated me for what I was
I was just a little kid
I had the world at my feet
But you stole that away from me
That is my greatest defeat
I get angry sometimes
For letting it happen
Why did it go on for so long?
You took away everything
Not only the 10 years did you steal
But the rest of my life too
I will never heal
Now I have kids of my own
And I couldn’t bare
If they ever felt alone
The way you did me
I will protect them
With everything I have
Because I will never make the same mistake again

It's hard to express our pain as well as the depths that pain entwines itself throughout our being. But we ARE affected well beyond when "things" happen.

You take care.
